Please take your shoes off and come in is a quiet invitation into the tenderness of everyday life. In her photographic series Analog Diary (2010 - Present, 35mm colour film), artist Johanna Tagada Hoffbeck gathers moments both fleeting and deeply intimate — glimpses of domestic rituals, gardens in bloom and rest, and the subtle gestures that mark time’s passage.

Rendered in soft colours and gentle light, her work invites the viewer into a space of care and quiet attention — a celebration of presence, memory, and the poetic rhythms of life. Please take your shoes off and come in is also a testament to the artist's transnational life and continuously (un)forming identity.
