{:en} I’m Selina, writing from Vienna. From now on, I’ll be contributing monthly articles for ArtTmodernmiami. I’m pursuing my master’s degree in clinical psychology after completing my bachelor’s.

{:en} Warm yellow colors on the deck of the gigantic cruise ship... A warm breeze in my face... Fresh sea air... And the theme "The island has appeared! Let's take the predictions ? with its postcard-perfect white sandy beaches, deep blue turquoise waters, and rainbow-colored towns, the Bahamas was my April holiday destination after a long cruise.

The Bahamas, named after the Spanish "Baja Mar" meaning "shallow waters", are here! ?️ There were a lot of things I...

Throughout Art Week, Miami becomes a center that prompts reflection on the extent to which art functions as a creative field versus a strategic market force. Miami is a high-energy city, deeply connected...

Now I would like to tell you about the “Candy Feast” celebration. Candy Feast mornings are special. After the 30-day fast, the breakfast table is very enticing… The hands of the elders are kissed, and the little ones are...
