We thought hard about being a @moxie.eth Hero this week and how we'll celebrate that. 

Introducing Pkok Finterviews - Cast-form farcaster interviews, 20 questions to some of our favorite people.

We aim to tell stories of phenomenal individuals shaping the art ecosystem on web3. It's also a great way for us and other heroes to get to know and engage with them. Oh! each interview starts with /degen love.

But wait, there's more! These Finterviews are not restricted to only those we tag. If you'd like to participate, just respond to the questions and join the party, everybody is invited to be a part of these Finterviews. Tell us more about yourself, read other people's stories and hopefully we all get to know each other better by the end.

Meet Angelika Kollin @angelikakollin 

We had the honor of chatting 1/1 with Angelika on @farhouse this Tuesday and we think the whole world should know her through her life story and art in the Pkok Collection.

Angelika is a self-taught fine art and documentary photographer currently based in Tampa, Florida. Her work is driven by a lifelong desire to comprehend and gain insight into human loneliness and suffering, as well as to study the role of faith in overcoming these challenges.

Angelika's passion in photography and art derives from a desire to delve into the complexities of inter-human connections and the deeper meaning of human existence. In her photography, she strives for a straight and honest portrayal, while also incorporating personal thoughts and grace. Angelika is known primarily for her portraiture and documentary-style photography, and she derives tremendous satisfaction from working on personal, long-term photographic projects that allow for in-depth investigation of her topics of interest.

Hi @angelikakollin, welcome to our Finterview 🙂  

How would you describe your artistic style to someone unfamiliar with your art?

Thank you @pkok for having me!

My style blends fine art and documentary portraiture, emphasizing human emotions through an honest yet compassionate visual approach. I often work in a monochromatic visual language to transcend specific time periods, presenting my narratives as timeless stories of humanity.

First off, thank you for your photography, constant presence and support of the arts on fc. 2000 $degen.

What initially drew you to art, and how did your journey as an artist begin?

Thank you! 🌹 

What initially drew me to art—and continues to inspire me, although to a lesser extent now—is my desire to understand myself, my childhood, and the family dynamics that shaped me. This exploration has evolved into a broader inquiry into the universal human experience: our need for belonging, our search for love, and our struggles with loss and grief. My artistic practice has become a means to delve into these fundamental and shared stories.

Those themes are indeed very prominent in your photography.

Is there anyone special that helped you or nurture your interest in art when you were starting out, and what difference did they make?

Throughout my journey as an artist, while there have been a few individuals who supported me along the way, I can't pinpoint a single influential figure. Interestingly, it has often been the perceived negative experiences and challenging individuals that inspired me to explore specific topics or develop particular bodies of work. For instance, with 'Everyday Saints,' my observations of how many employers mistreat their domestic workers motivated me to create a meaningful statement on the subject.

We can definitely feel your love for the unseen and unheard percolating through your choice of subjects.

Who are your fav 3 people who make your fc experience exponentially better?

I can't narrow it down to just three—it's impossible! 

But let's settle on the Alfa group, @innamosina, and @nomadicframe, just to name a few. ♥️
