The creative process is a form of meditation

– For me, painting is a creative expression of myself and has accompanied me since I was a child. I paint under the influence of feelings and emotions – I reach deep into my soul, often touching what is difficult and painful. What I feel, I express through color, texture and expressive brushstrokes. That is why the creative process itself is often more important than the final effect. I would compare it to meditation, although it can also be a real catharsis, because it helps me understand myself and soothe my emotions, says the author of the works.

Unconventionality, multi-layeredness, freedom

At the exhibition at the Center of Culture “Śródmieście” in Białystok, you will be able to see over 20 paintings made in mixed technique. The exhibition is characterized by diversity, multiplicity of colors and unusual textures. – Broadly understood freedom in life and art is, in my opinion, extremely important. The feeling of freedom and the most freedom gives me mixed technique, in which I create most often. I am fascinated by the multilayeredness and texture of paintings, which is why I often use unconventional painting tools in my works.

A unique painting exhibition

At the exhibition you will be able to see not only paintings – the author of the works has added artistic notebooks, which are part of her work. – I also give a new life to notebooks and old books – I paint in them, create collages. This is how artistic diaries are created, which are an inseparable part of me and my artistic journey. Each of my works is a part of me, my soul, and since I sincerely believe that we are all connected to each other in some way, I hope that everyone will also find a part of themselves in them – sums up Marta Karczewska.
