About The Artwork
This object consisting of a skull covered with numerous holes. The creation time was quite a long: from 2015 to 2016 year.The idea of work appeared suddenly, one day I came across a large market for bones, teeth and antlers. Death could be bought immediately, for a dozen dolars This thought was scary, it inspired me so much that I was started working with skulls. First, I had to washed and thoroughly cleaned all skulls. It was my personal way of dealing with death. After drying I drilled all skulls. Death is not clean, sterile or beautiful. Skulls after transformation became openwork, defenseless and very delicate. "I wanted to capture the fragility of existence in something that was inherently stable.

Erwina Ziomkowska received a master's degree in painting from Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice, Poland. "I create objects and temporary installations. Women`s garments and several pairs of shoes all pinched with a huge amount of pins, skulls so fragile that with every touch they may break, swing with additional ballast, paper punctured with a pin/knife, neons, some books, this is all what I need to create my works. Very characteristic is the extremely minimalist way of acting, boiled down the simple, by design, repetitive activities i.e.: grooving, threading, puncturing, scratching, etc. Despite the extreme intensity of work it is very difficult to notice in the completed objects, even a shadow of the passing expression, which is now replaced with entirely purified forms, reminding us more of a picture of sterile cool beauty than a record of human feelings and emotions."
