Agata Juszczak III




One old lady leads me to another and back to an illustrator, Agata Juszczak, whose work I love with its wild mix of media, abstract, surrealism and realism.

These are two of Agata's responses to "Słowa do rzeczy" (Words to Things) a competition organised by the Ethnographic Museum in Krakow in 2014 exploring popular Polish sayings and proverbs and their origins in popular culture. This competition asked that objects from the collection at the Ethnographic Museum in Krakow, such as household appliances, agricultural tools and crafts, clothing, furniture that have fallen out of use be included. Creating new references and keeping the culture and understanding alive.
