Małgorzata Krakowiak In The Studio

The creative process is an intimate record of "suchness of me" at a given moment in life. So creating is a path for me, not a goal. And along this path, ups and downs, struggle and submission, acceptance, suffering and joy. More doubts than certainty. Search. Expressing longings and delight. Affirmation of life.
