I still remember strongly that night I met Muriel first time, It was at one of the squat parties in Hackney. At that time I was pretty sick in 2, 3 months pregnant with my son that made me super sensitive with noise and smell and all surroundings. It was a massive party with lots of people and loud music. Then all I could see from my position ( i was sitting on the floor feeling up onto somewhere else) was so many feet moving like a massive snake following music. Then suddenly from out of nowhere, just in front of me, a sketchbook was dropped. It was as if its meant to be picked up by me. sure, i picked up. then, WOW!
I was struck by all drawings which contained inside. those strong colour and lines and eyes…..eyes…..I was suddenly back to reality…then within a second i thought i have to find this person, this artist, i want to know this soul that could produce such beautiful art.
As soon as I found her, I realized that was only tip of the massive iceberg. As I knew her more and more, I was totally amazed by all her life story, her vision of life, philosophy that I get hyper reactive everytime I met her. We became closer in the days to come.
Every time I saw her she would give something special or find impressive words which stayed on my mind the next few days. Even after I left London and only we exchanged by e mails, she still inspires me deeply.
I love her a lot, and very lucky to meet her in this life. There are some very important people we meet in our lifes who influence us. Muriel is such a special one for me.
