Summer 2026 // A Hand-Made Rebellion

In an age where AI can dream a thousand images in a minute, I choose the meticulous discipline of crafting by hands. In summer 2026, I am making art personally and going on an creative barter tour across Europe to meet YOU.

I am an artist with the planing precision of an IT Project Manager and the soul of a creative hobby collector. And I am tired of social media. I believe in connection. The Art Barter Coffee Tour is a cross-border experiment in non-transactional exchange between likeminded creatives. I am traveling to 13 cities (and nearby locations) to trade my artworks for a physical manifestation of your creative world over a cup of coffee.

A

ART. I bring an artwork for you. You bring one in exchange: drawing, ceramics, poem, embroidery, whatever you make.

B

BARTER. We exchange our handcrafted pieces of art. No money is involved.

C

COFFEE. We get to know each other in 30 – 60 minutes in a local cafe. Maybe create something new together alongside.

Tell me what you do and what inspires you, who you admire. Let’s share an art moment offline and create a counter-ritual against the algorithms.

I check applications for the Art Barter Tour every Saturday to get back to you as soon as possible.
