Monika Kozub, known also as Berlin Boudoir, is a visual artist and feminist activist. Her work is an exploration of beauty's diverse facets, with a focus on themes like nature and sexuality as sources of empowerment. Through her art, Monika confronts stereotypes surrounding women's lives, aiming to illuminate the strength and freedom that arises from challenging these preconceptions. Her art proudly reflects her feminist identity, celebrating decadence and eroticism as vehicles for societal transformation. In 2022, Monika collaborated with her partner, Daniel S. Roden, to release an art music video titled "PERIOD." This thought-provoking creation takes a tongue-in-cheek approach to celebrate menstruation while addressing period poverty. The film received the Best Music Video award at the Toronto International Women Film Festival and was featured in film festivals globally, including the Aesthetica Short Film Festival and the Video Art and Experimental Film Festival in New York City. Viewing her work as an ongoing dialogue with her audience, Monika initiated the concept of Period Celebration costume parties. These inclusive gatherings serve as platforms for open conversations about menstruation, blending art, and advocacy. Following successful events in Berlin, Monika is now extending the celebration to London, inviting participants to engage in a collective exploration of menstrual pride, awareness, and unity.
