Jan Siwicki’s exhibition entitled “Strangeness and Isolation” is an attempt to portray the complex nature of phenomenon of strangeness in different contexts. With weirdness or peculiarity often comes isolation. Thus the two are interconnected in many ways and in many forms.

Maria Drabik analyses  the concept of sky and void. Both of them are experienced by everyone and understood universally, though still differently for everyone. The artworks presented aim to help define these topics, explore them and try to understand their essence. 

Hanna Skubis explores how closeness is part of our everyday life, how we find it even in the most subtle gestures, and what happens when we sometimes miss it. The pieces comment on both presence and absence of someone, as well as the feelings they evoke.  

Many people came for the opening of the exhibition and expressed their very positive opinions about the artworks. Congratulations to the artists!
