**March 25, 2016** I’m a hunter-gatherer, mother, chef, housewife and sexbomb. 2 pension credits.

**October 11, 2016 12:20h** F. Seide’s drawings impress by their rough, angry style which is transporting a constant lack of time and half-withered Indian ink.

**October 13, 2016 10:18h** In the meantime, we have become that stupid that we need an „appetizing image“ for a whey bar!

**October 17, 2016** First, I drank a too sour espresso at a non-place. Then I bought a new bike.

**December 20, 2016** Dec 19, around 8 p.m., a black ribbon fell from the sky and covered the city.

**December 21, 2016 16:29h** On the last floor suddenly sat this unknown guy, smoking, the smoke arising into our flat, biting. Huddled together, he sat there, at first not reacting on my voice, only sitting, smoking, remaining silent. And because of all what happened yesterday and the day before I moved back, trembling, without knowing anything about the threat or not-threat of that guy on the last floor.

**December 26, 2016** reflective christmas.

**December 29, 2016 20:50h** at year end, he was caught between well-known chairs very often.

One drawing per day… Documenting, saving, remembering. Since 2013, this is my ongoing diary project. No matter, if it becomes a good or a bad drawing. Keeping the moments and keeping the way of seeing the world through an artist’s eye. /

Jeden Tag (auf)zeichnen. Festhalten, erinnern. Seit 2013 ist dies meine Form der Tagebuchaufzeichnung. Ganz egal, ob es eine gute oder eine schlechte Zeichnung wird. Weder den Moment noch den künstlerischen Blick verlieren.
