Well, telling the truth the last shooting day turned out a little bit different than planned. I invited everybody for a photo session on the red carpet in front of the building of Rudolfinum but as soon as I arrived, it was more than clear for the first sight that the original mission is impossible. The place was crowded because of Dvořákova Praha Music Festival, there was a chore singing on the stage and people sitting everywhere on the stairs including the red carpet. I had 2 minutes to come out with an idea to save the situation. I decided to climb up to the top of the round platform in the middle of the square which belongs to the ventilation system of the underground garage. Thanks to my first model of the day we took some test photos and it seemed to be an ok option. So I spent the rest of the afternoon there sending out messages to my further models and waving like crazy to make myself visible. All in all we had a great day, even if the location was not perfect, the party was fabulous with lots of laughter. Thank you all, Guys for your participation and flexibility (literally :) )  ALISA.

What would have been a more emblematic venue than this one... 'NEBOJ' means Do not worry! or Don't be afraid! There is a strong tendency in some European countries in our days that certain political forces are gaining influence by acting as defender while generating the fake vision of enemies and maintaining the fear. This kind of politics leave fingerprints on many levels of the everyday life, from children's education to the atmosphere of homes. In most of the cases fear comes from false or missing information. Fear from the unknown is working like poison. A significant part of the society is afraid of the migrants although they have never met a single one. My goal is to show the diversity of the migrant community in Europe with the example of Prague. I would like to encourage people from different cultures in Prague's migrant community to get to know each other Legal Alien in Prague is a growing community, which can serve as a great platform for communication in order to getting closer to each other. I'm closing this project's first season with more than 100 portraits and I feel grateful for the participation and support of every single model of mine. More to come from September!
