Stylistically a romantic expressionist, Ewa Gargulinska uses dramatic interplay of the opposite forces of abstract and figurative in unpredictable yet powerful interactions, where the worlds between imagination and reality connect. I use metaphors and mythology to express emotional, spiritual and metaphysical states of mind, relating to my experiences of lifes mysteries. I draw images from both my imagination and collective symbolism, pondering how spirit animates matter and how it leaves the body. Ewas art is exhibited and represented internationally including: the National Museum in Krakow, the National Museum of Women in the Arts Archives in Washington, the Copernicus University Archives, Torun, and Madame Tussauds in London. Her work is collected worldwide, most notably by Dr. Arthur Sackler (founder of the new wing at the Royal Academy, London and the extensions to the Metropolitan and Smithsonian Museums in the U.S.A), Cusacks, Jeremy Irons, Sir Michael Scott |
