I am an activist and storyteller living in Amsterdam, trying to capture everyday moments that tell the story of us. I write about social trends, feminism, mental health and love. My photography looks at the moments between moments, at what happens when we wait. Check out some of my work at http://madalinapreda.com/

Música, películas y libros

I love all music, from classical to alternative, from techno to folk. At the moment, I am listening to a lot of 80's R&B/Soul music like Chaka Khan or Earth, Wind & Fire and I have Saint Etienne's Foxbase Alpha album on repeat.
I am an avid reader and right now I am working my way through an anthology of Kathy Acker's work who I recently discovered and absolutely fell in love with her powerful writing.
I used to be obsessed with Tarkovsky and Milos Forman movies. Now I am obsessed with Amy Schummer.
