“rooms for the damned” are platforms to open discussion on those phenomena we perhaps to easily name as ‘problems’ and address by way of ‘elimination’. (…)

The project investigates, questions, analyses, reveals and proposes consolations for commonly perceived failings among human beings.

It asks: how to offer solace to human failures?Its answer: Celabrate the failure .’

The main aim is to encourage a revisiting of definition of happiness and success, and to approach them with sense of openess, mixing poetry and irony.’
