my exhibition: Powstanki.1944 - Scenes from the lives of women in the Warsaw Uprising
WOMAN IN THE WARSAW UPRISING is about a life that had a very fragile structure. Life that had to go on despite being more fleeting than ever. I wanted to capture and freeze the passing moments of their lives. Where each moment could well be their last.
project includes 13 billboards (120/90cm each)

LAST MONDAY
LAST MONDAY -mural painting (visual memory)
LAST MONDAY is about to freeze the passing moment of an average day. I am interested in everyday moments that will never be repeated and will most likely be lost to memory becouse of their lack of great meaning. In LAST MONDAY I brought such a moment back to people and then made it disappear again. The practical part of the project consisted of photographical documentation of people passing by the wall of gallery one Monday before the exhibition this piece was part of. Then I transformed the pictures into mural that was painted and exhibited on the same wall a week after I had taken pictures. The day after I painted wall white again.

project: How to apply blush? 2007
How to apply blush?
Participants: Ola Misztur and Anna Czarnota
(All works are the result of collaboration between the artists)
In the creative process two strong personalities were struggling.
A question arose how far one can get in discarding one’s individuality .
A question where this leads.
As a result of this jostle all that is weak in them remained on the canvas.
Gradually, the good and acknowledged elements of the pictures disappeared.
One’s personality and previous features got lost .
Only what is left in between the stages remained.
Things that are usually not exposed, turned back against the wall.
Things that we usually refuse to discuss.
To expose to the public view one’s weaker sides and one’s doubts is not a common thing to do.
The stronger is the challenge.
