"Walking on a tightrope while being constantly watched is the life that awaits us the moment we allow to be silenced’

In today's episode I talk to artist Elena Naskova from Mazedonia and at the age of 25 moved to the United States.
Elena is part of the group of artist joined the exhibition call out for the freedom of Julian Assange.

This was a very emotional podcast for me, as we both have roots in the former Yugoslavia - and the war orchestrated on this country created big scars on our souls.

Welcome to the second episode to "Persona Non Filtered" podcast. Today I talk to artist Hazuki Fukuda who is part of the group exhibition call on the freedom of #JulianAssange curated by Salonrogue in Leipzig Germany.

Hazuki told me about her way into the art world, and how she faced racism in her daily life, what led her into leaving her "office job" to than go on full risk in turning her life around. She understand this as a calling from within to change her life. Very touching the conversation went as Hazuki talked about her grandfather, an artist who had to fight in the Second World War, and was forced by the Japanese government to paint pictures which praised the war. All of this made Hazuki aware of Julian Assange case and how important it is to all of us for him to be free, and only when he is free - we will be free.
