Work of art I would like to make
Currently I am thinking of my next project, which is the idea of juxtaposing ways of living in Polish and English countryside by showing their inhabitants in their own interiors as well as outdoor surroundings. I am very interested in its result, as in my opinion the project can show these two completely different worlds from sociological and artistic point of view and capture the richness of their differences and similarities in a bigger detail. The topic came to me after moving to the UK from a tiny village of Palmowo, Poland, where I spent most of my life, experiencing the rural aspects of life, and that is why perhaps I can see things, which others are not able to. On the other hand, however, I have been living in the UK for the past five years and I feel that I have become a part of the local culture as well, what in a way obligates me to bring these two cultures closer to each other, by capturing and showing things, which can cause, that we will know more about our two different worlds of the Western and former Eastern Europe, and as a consequence about ourselves as well. |
