Inspiration, creative practice

Being a first-generation child of Polish migrants, I am intrigued by the concept of belonging. Through the traditional methods of printmaking, I have tried to find connections between my contemporary life and my European heritage. There are elements of nostalgia in my works, as I am reflecting of memories from the past. Architecture and fashion have become huge elements in my work, and the 1920's have also become a major influence. By using processes of layering and narrative, my aim has been to explore an alternate world in the hopes of engaging with cultural identity.
