Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
working with video, film and sound for a project about me and my five older sisters.
ABOUT ME
I am Mika, youngest child of eight. Born in Norilsk Sibiria, raised in Germany. Currently living in San Francisco.
I love the culture mix in my family, my mum speaking Russian to me while I'm answering her in German. I love to eat with my boyfriends family who are from Vietnam, taking pictures when people don't notice, day dream whenever possible and writing journal. I like to try everything before I decide whether I like it or not. I love empty or very crowded places so I can sing out loud without bothering anyone. I believe that traveling is one of the most important things in (my) life.
PHILOSOPHY
Actions speak louder than words. Some say I laugh like a monkey. Well I think I'll continue doing that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
During my time in Sibiria I was doing a photoproject.
On the last day I decided to climb on a very slanted roof to take a picture of the entire village even though I fear heights.
