We drove to Warsaw for a few hours, Michael took sizzling pictures with fashion- photographer Julia Zakrzewicz while I was strolling around Warsaw with Fael, my content creator/capturer/prince. We also made a stop at the insta-famous Cosmos Museum- we wanted a taste of these pompous glittery visual illusions that flooded our brains the past weeks online.

Honestly: even though we went there just a few weeks after the opening and everything we had seen on Instagram before looked so spectacular INSTAAAAMAZING.. reality hit us hard. “Instagram VS reality” at its finest- all bling and beautiful on pictures, but this reallllyyyyy had a rough DIY-vibe. Maybe it has already been visited so many times that it felt used and trashy? I love the idea of a space where people can create their own fascinating personal content. With a small effort you get a magical picture of yourself that will polish your online profile like none other has before (unless you gave birth). Make sure you got plenty of time and patience, queues can get crazy – we skipped some of the 50 exhibits… also because this type of place obviously attracts muchachas and muchachos craving to get their breathtaking portrait taken in a breathtaking surrounding – and that, as you know, needs at least 50 attempts before you get the perfect shot. I genuinely liked some of the clever visual illusions using mirrors, lights, perspective & digital art and we DID take some cute pictures. BUT I would not call this a MUSEUM. Rather a mini-maybe-museum.

Before we went there I read that it’s an interactive fascinating and unpredictable spot. The only thing that really aroused my curiosity was a glittery staircase where several women dressed in sequins and equipped with feathers glued to their eyes were posing next to each other showing their most delicious looks.. each to their own photographer. I felt like I was in my beloved Netflix Series POSE: this was a “House of Evangelista” vs “House of Abundance” Ball! Every girl made her stairstep her own TV-show. We were just waiting for these creatures to rise into the glitter abyss. Judging by the length of their long-ass fake eye-lashes an act of shutting and opening the eyes quickly would take them to another continent instantly.

I wonder- is it me who is the only one feeling weird to pose the shit out of each second while being around people I have not seen ever in my life? I have to work on that.

ALL IN ALL – even though our Cosmos-Sausage tasted slightly trashy, the pictures you can take there create the sizzle and that’s what counts.
The real sizzle though… get a taste of it for yourself:
