About The Artwork

I like to re-paint many times my paintings, the process of creation and destruction, and recreation, and destruction, and following creation of a new entity is really fascinating. A painting as a diary. The painting gains certain structure and texture; changes just like everyday's life; becomes an emotional topic bringing strong emotions. This painting shows different stages of life; as we grow up we notice that not everything goes as planned. That is why "a life" is not a straight line; shapes, colours, shadows and broken lines that are in the middle of nowhere. "It only takes one match to ignite a haystack, or one remark to fire a mind". Lawrence Durrell ******* Oil, digital, mix media, acrylic, fan of found objects. I like typography and poetry. I am a multidisciplinary and prolific artist. It was a long, long way to find some courage to show my art :- ) I never know where from my inspiration will come from; sometimes it is a short press article, or “breaking news”, sometimes it is a sentence, or an object or a place. I am constantly looking for new ways of transmitting (not only my) emotions; that is why I reach for so many seemingly incompatible topics and themes, and I work in so many techniques. 2014 - solo show, "Photos from New York", Public Library, Warsaw, Poland 2016 - group exhibition; 5 posters in "Chernobyl 30, Fukushima 5" International Exhibition, Kharkov, Ukraine 2016 - group exhibition "Digital Culture", at CICA Museum from July 22 to August 7, Korea 2016 - poster for Bibahaban Theatre, August, Colcata, India 2016 - (online) finalist in Carpetvista Modern Carpet Design Competition, Sweden 2016 - group exhibition, Global Biennale of Graphic Design, Golden Bee 12, October, Moscow, Russia 2016 - group exhibition, Institute of Management, UW Warsaw, Nov-Dec, Poland 2017 - group exhibition, Center for Creativity, Warsaw, Poland 2017 - 2nd International Exhibition on Abstract Art, "Abstract Mind," Gimpo, Si, Korea. 2017 - group exhibition, Bank and Financial Center, Warsaw

Hi, I am Sylvia, I was born and raised in a small Polish city near the Polish-German border. In my art, I try to describe our times – with the main point on language, culture and woman issues - problems, identity, gender. To connect Words with concepts. Art offers an incredible opportunity to communicate -- using as few words as possible.- - with people of all languages and all backgrounds – we can interchange ideas, present certain points of view, transmit them one to another, and even without direct contact, we communicate. During my art studies (postgraduate) I took part in some open juried international art calls for artists. As a result, my first exhibitions were juried international ones. The one I’m especially proud of is 12th Global Biennale of Graphic Design Golden Bee, where the members of preselection online jury came from South Korea, Iran, Czech Republic, Switzerland, USA, Japan and Ukraine and the members of the main jury were from Germany, France, Switzerland, Japan, Russia, Estonia, and the USA. My poster “Dante For Ever” got included in the final exhibition and printed catalog. This event had a huge impact on me, as I found out that my art, in this case, poster art can be understood by people of different cultural ties and backgrounds. After graduation I was supplementing my income by working as a translator in a press agency – that was a great experience that opened my eyes on global issues, and since that time, I try to follow (by internet) all the most interesting topics that will have global impact like e.ex elections in the US. I follow also some of the congressional hearings, as they are much more interesting than feature films ; - ) I hope one day I will visit the USA and the Capitol and watch Congress in session; -) I never know where the inspiration will come from; sometimes it is a short press article, or “breaking news”, sometimes it is a sentence, or an object or a place. That is why I reach for so many seemingly incompatible topics and themes while working with many different techniques. In my digital art, I only use the photos I made, including sometimes pieces of my previous artworks, that I destroyed for a number of different reasons.
