my art blog: http://miriamvintage.blogspot.com My standard artistic education was finished above a decade ago, when I graduated secondary school of arts in Katowice. Despite this fact, i consider myself as half-autodidact, creating in my very own Hermit`s cave. My own,feverish searches in the art area are last since 2009, being at the beginning peculiar form of autotherapy, which has evoluated with time in the primary and non-replaceable occupation. If i had to looking for independent sources in my art, which significantly influenced on the language i am using in my works, i would, without hesitation, to list two concepts: Witkacy`s theory of pure form and the state of horror metaphysicus described by Leszek Kolakowski. The most important is to invoke in self this one and this only metaphysical sense and awaken it in viewers
