Berlin bits * Mostly food

Beautiful Barn coffee shop with excellent coffee and sandwiches 

Bad hair day, tiredness and beer :)

Odlucila sam da pocnem ovaj post sa malo hrane i malo posla. Ovaj post je zapravo uvod u sledeci, gde cu pricati o mom i Tijaninom boravku u Berlinu na REmake festivalu. O nasem radu na samom festivalu ste mogli da procitate i na nasem blogu Kriska, ali mislim da je okej da se pojavi i na mom licnom blogu par recenica, predstavljanje ucesnika, opis festivala, moji dozivljaji istog i slicno. 

Verujem da svako ko je posetio Berlin nije ostao ravnodusan na ovaj sjajan grad, prepun zanimljivog kulturnog sadrzaja, divnu arhitekturu, multikulturalnost i istoriju koja zivi zajedno sa savremenim duhom ovom grada. Ovo je bio moj drugi odlasak u Berlin, tako da sam manje fotografisala a vise radila i uzivala u njegovim carima. 

Uglavnom smo izlazili u Kreuzberg i uzivali u Berliner Kindl pivu, jedno od mojih omiljenih ikada. Naravno, uvek je zanimljivo da se vratis na neka mesta gde si vec bio, kao sto su odredjeni pabovi, galerije, prodavnice sa stripovima i knjigama i slicno. A da, mislim da sam se na ovom putu "navukla" na Kafe late. Imali smo u Platoon Kunsthalle, gde smo provodili najvise vremena, sjajnu sankericu koja pravi najbolji late ikad. 

Vidimo se u sledecem postu gde cu malo opsirnije pisati o celoj nasoj avanturi, te daavne 2013. godine ;)

I've decided to start this post with a little bit of work and a little bit of food. Food is good, right, so
there's no problem. Just kidding. This post is actually a little introduction to a next post, where I will
write about Studio Krishka's trip to Berlin and what we did there.

Wednesday afternoon and more

Nasi drugari Ivana i Kim su nam prosli vikend doneli jos korejske hrane a danas sam spremala Poja knedle punjene raznoranim sadrzajem, od kupusa koji je glavni sastojak, do soja sosa, jos nekih zacina i sastojaka, ne secam se tacno, ali u svakom slucaju ukusno. 
Prosli petak se, kao sto sam pomenula, odrzala izlozba "Medvedi u cast prolecu" i opet smo imali prilike da vidimo sjajne radove od umetnika iz celog sveta. Pored slika/ilustracija na zidu, na izlozbi su u jednom delu bile smestena lutke medveda, stare, drage igracke sa kojima smo odrastali, pune licnih prica. Jako lep dogadjaj u svakom slucaju, a za vise slika i informacija o umetnicima, posetite sajt Medveda i njhovu Facebook stranicu. Bilo je jako tesko fotkati, jer je guzva ucinila svoje, stoga i nemam bas puno slika, a na jednoj od ovih se nalazi moja drugarica Emilija pored mog rada. Ozbiljna Ema ;)

Pored igrice, na kojoj jos uvek vredno radi ceo tim, ja se zabvaljam sa novom serijom ilustracija. U pitanju su digtialne ilustracije i neke od njih se biti izlozene sledece nedelje, ali pisacu vec o tome. Posle toga, mislim da se bacam malo na papir. Nedostaje mi jako.

Na poslednjoj slici je Nikola, moj muz u nasem stanu, nasem kutku za rad. Jos uvek nismo preneli sve stvari u stan, tako da minimalizam preovladava, ali polako sredjujemo svaki cosak. Svi nas pitaju, kako da jos niste okacili slike, zar ti Barbara, slikar. Okej, imamo jednu sliku za sada i stvarno, najgora sam. Ali prosto zelimo da isplaniramo gde cemo, sta cemo a i hocu da okacim nove slike, pa dok se nakanim da to uradim, nece nista faliti zidovima. Neka malo budu samo beli :)

Last weekend, our friends Ivana and Kim brought us some more Korean food. Today I've prepared steamed Pooja dumplings, mostly stuffed with cabbage and soy sauce. Very nice meal. 
Last Friday I've exhibited my work in the Parobrod's gallery "Bears - in honor of spring", like I said in the last post. It was really nice event with excellent works from artists all around the world. It was really hard to photograph, since it was very crowded so I don't have many photos, but you can see it here and here you can see artists' info. It's my friend Emilija in this photo next to my work. 
Beside video game I'm currently working with my team, I'm also preparing new series of illustrations. Some of them will be exhibited next week, but I will write about it next time. 

My husband Nikola is on a last photo in our creative corner. We still didn't bring all our stuff here, so everything is minimalistic, but we are slowly decorating every corner of our flat. Everybody asks us "Why don't you have paintings on a wall, you are a painter, what's with that?" Yeah, it's true, we only have one drawing I did last year and that's it. But the thing is, I want to hang the new ones, so it takes time and also, I want to plan the order of the paintings carefully. 

Buzzing

Lepo vreme a ja ne stizem da uzivam u njemu, osim sto me zraci golicaju kroz prozor kancelarije. Tim Two desperados, sa kojima radim, je izbacio novi teaser za predstojecu igricu. Mozete je videti ovde. To znaci da je igrica pri kraju i jedva cekam da je napokon odigram. Cudan je taj osecaj kad radis na njoj, a ne mozes jos da znas kako to sve u celini izgleda, pa te iscekivanje ubija. 

Inace, posto radim part time, imam vremena i da kuvam za nas dvoje, sto je super, jer mi je bas nedostajalo. Paa...mozda ne i toliko, jer je Nikola bio kuvar proteklih nedelja, i posle deset godina veze, ja sam shvatila da odlicno kuva. Ranije sam ja uvek bila ta koja je spremala klopu, ili smo narucivali hranu, nisam mu dala da dodje do izrazaja, I guess ;) Ali evo sad zdruzio s kuhinjom i super mu ide. 

Danas sam spremala musaku, ali jako zacinjenu. Dobili smo neke zacine iz Koreje od nasih prijatelja, pa sam isprobavala i mislim da cu odsad uvek tako spremati musaku. U pitanju su, izmedju ostalog, dva zacina, jedan zapravo mesavina zacina, nemam pojma sta sve ide, na korejskom je napisano i daje tu pikantnu notu. Drugi je tucana ljuta papirka, ali ima malo drugaciji smek od ove nase. Ljutina je taman da ne pustate paru kroz nos. 

Pored toga, radujem se predstojecoj izlozbi "Medvedi u cast prolecu", gde sam i prosle godine ucestvovala a ova je cetvrta po redu. Pa ako ste iz Beograda, ili cete biti ovde u petak, svratite. Izlozba je vrlo zanimljiva, slatka i mozda jedna od mojih omiljenih proteklih godina. 

The game developers I work with, have published another teaser for upcoming video game. You can see it here. I really can not wait to finally play it. 

Since I'm working part time, I finally have time to cook for my husband and me. He was our chef last few weeks, and I was really surprise how good he is in preparing dishes. But now is my turn. Today I made spicy musaka. We got two new spices from Korea from our friends and I love them so much. One is the mix of spices actually, I'm not sure what kind it is, it's all written in Korean, and the other one is some kind of cayenne pepper. I actually cook everything with those two spices these days. 

Also, this Friday I will exhibit my illustration on group exhibition "Bears - in honor of spring". It's annual exhibition and I think it's one of my favorite events of the year. I will show you some pictures from it.
