Do You Trust ? is a huddle of 5 beings. It aims to inspire feeling of trust when one feels lovingly held by a tribe of benevolent guides. The piece has an audio element which will be devotional poetry in different languages and mediation on trust.
I am originally from Serbia. I came here for good in 1999 escaping the war in my country. Since then I became an x-ray tech and completed my masters in counseling psychology with specialty in Expressive Art Therapy. This experience has shown me how soul processes melt with different modalities of art. For a brief period of time I was a part of cabaret clown troupe in San Francisco called Fou Fou Ha and this is how I first discovered Burning Man and its arts. My other forms of expression find them self through painting, dance and cooking. I am also into cross-fit, yoga and hoping to call myself a surfer one day too.
Ten years ago, I hit the playa for the for the first time and it was everything!!! I came back with new ideas and sense of self. It gave me the courage to do as the universe intended me to do. I was on unemployment at that time and didn’t have much. I sold an old trailer and took a small loan out on a knife collection my father passed down to me, at the local pawn shop. I bought tools!!!!! Today I have a thriving business and am the owner of Phelps Marquee. We build signs and artistically driven installation pieces for individuals and businesses. I am blessed to have my work commissioned and shown all over the world.
