Part of the Summer Travels open call and exhibition.

My dream summer vacation takes place on a magical island where a giant’s skull rests, overgrown with quartz crystals and mushrooms. It's peaceful, but not unprotected—a giant kraken rises from the sea to guard it, swatting away unwanted boats like flies.

I imagine myself lounging on a picnic blanket atop the skull, sipping coffee, soaking in the golden sun, drifting clouds, and the rhythm of waves below. It’s surreal, but comforting—like a memory that never happened.

The idea came from a small clay skull my brother owns. Some of my favorite memories are with my brothers, and this piece is a tribute to those moments: silly, strange, and full of imagination. This island isn’t just a fantasy getaway—it’s a place where creativity, nostalgia, and love live side by side, watched over by tentacles and magic.
