Still discovering new things at 90
When talking to us, Karin has to listen carefully; her tinnitus continues to bother her. To let go, she always starts her day with yoga or meditation. She now organizes her work schedule herself, likes to cook at lunchtime, and sits by the window with her coffee cup for fifteen minutes. The 62-year-old didn't have time for such a lifestyle in the past and appreciates it all the more today. At mealtimes, Karin and her husband often sit together, tell each other about their day and occasionally end the evening with a little dance - most recently, the two have been practicing the slow waltz.
For Karin, it is important to live and work with love and mindfulness. In her marriage, she feels on the same level with her partner; together, the couple looks at what is good for each other - this was not always the case and has only developed over time. At the same time, Karin wants to remain free and flexible and throw herself into new projects well into old age. With this energy, she also inspires the people around her, as we notice in conversation with other artists in the studio. Karin is not yet able to answer the question about her future: "I have visions from time to time, which I then simply let go of to wait for the right moment. Maybe I'll write a book about my tinnitus."
