Joya: AiR / Sietske Bosma / NED

‘The week I spent at Joya: AiR turned out to be exactly right. Coming from a darker and colder northern Europe, I felt some relief in the sunlit mountains of Almería. What struck me at first was the silence in the mountains that magnified the sound of birds taking flight. The warm atmosphere Donna and Simon create and the support of all the other residents made an impression on me as well. Experimenting in the given space without a pressure to perform helped me to focus on my creative process and explore new ways of working. This I’ll take further in my practice and I'm very grateful to Joya: AiR for the opportunity.
