TUVA_LISTAU

Our inner demon evokes an emotional battle between the need of a powerful outer image and the insecurity of the frail core inside. My clothes work as a cocoon cage to both protect and preserve our true self, whilst projecting the strenght and confidence we sometimes feel without. Nordic mythology, norwegian nature and the idea of mental restriction are all components to create my Haunting Spell.
