Victoria Margrethe Bencsik writes in fragments. Her work often takes the form of lists and notes, small texts no larger than A6. Sometimes they are accompanied by drawings or placed next to photographs, and sometimes they grow into large artworks meant to hang on walls. Her pieces capture fleeting thoughts on life and the human condition — honest, personal, and deceptively simple, forming a quiet map of existence.

Bad Days Are Also Part of a Very Good and Sexy Life (2024)
ISBN–978-1-7333113-2-8
Victoria Margrethe Bencsik is celebrated for her honest and personal storytelling. Her first book, Bad Days Are Also Part of a Very Good and Sexy Life, features 200 evocative texts written between 2018 and 2021 (Paris, Oslo & Hamar), combining strength with vulnerability.
Weighing just 251 grams, the book is designed to resemble the iconic notepad where her thoughts take shape, with the cover featuring the signature Vichy-patterned tablecloth she always writes on. Its minimalist aesthetic and familiar texture create an intimate connection to her creative process, making the reading experience feel as raw and personal as the words themselves. Victoria welcomes you to her brain.
