\"Berleween-Jolixor-portrait\"<\/a>Her pictures are truly unique in the world of Hipstamatic and once you get over your initial perplexity, you automatically find yourself plunging into a delightful universe of miniatures. It\u2019s a funny, poetic and sometimes quite cynical little world, which reawakens childhood memories. She received the \"Hipstamatic Creative Concept Award\" during the last Hipstography Awards<\/span><\/a>, and I had the immense pleasure of meeting Berlewen Jolixor at the Click. Boom. Amazing! exhibition, in Brussels. I decided to have her undergo a little therapy session\u2026 on the program: childhood issues, troubles with the law and creative schizophrenia.<\/h4>\n

So, Berlewen, you were obviously deprived of toys when you were a child. Is photography your way of exorcising your demons?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Berlewen: No, I wasn\u2019t deprived of toys at all, except maybe for Barbie dolls, which were definitely not allowed. Photography just happens to be the only way that I can enjoy total freedom of expression! You don\u2019t have to justify yourself, there\u2019s no doubt or confusion, but rather a child-like joy about the subject matter. Sometimes the images I\u2019ve imagined in my head are just not very feasible.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
