Primal, raw, elevated, empowered. Faces of people indulging in the momentum of enhanced visuals and musical triggers fueling their bodies with endorphins and reaching thresholds of mystic elation. Being present there or level higher, bathing in sounds and feeding on energy leaking and dripping all around.

Photographs shot on Olympus Trip AF51 dangling from my neck waiting for the moment of raw emotions during parties happening after major pandemic lockdowns. People hungry to feel something more, something better, extraordinary.
Some may argue that you can be really you in numerous situations and activities through life, and I agree. But I feel this special kind of passion and hidden emotions the most, when I observe people in an environment where they feel accepted, relaxed, joyful and surrounded by people they enjoy.

The making of Zine was inspired by a simple wish to combine all my favorite photos and even further accentuate faces and moments by cutting and positioning cut outs to create the final atmosphere and essence of the party. Each page visualizes a party at a different location and time with four places in the spotlight: Klub Wetrinsky in Maribor (sadly no longer with us), Klub K4 in Ljubljana, Butik Festival in Tolmin and Club Pratersauna in Vienna.
