I call those two linen each 6meters long painting Cosmogonies. Cosmogonies after Olga Tokarczuk: My favorite philosopher is Archemanes. According to Archemanes the world was created as a result of the synergy of two primal forces. He understood these powerful forces to be both eternal and universal. Their synergy would best be described as never-ending consumption - one devours the other, ceaselessly – and the existence of the world is dependent on this. The first of the two forces is Chthonos, which keeps reproducing, continuously burgeoning and proliferating. The aim of its existence is creation, which it achieves not only by multiplying itself, but also by producing elements that are not like it, or are even its opposite. So within Chthonos there is constant growth, blind and automatic – the cannon fodder of existence. The other force is Chaos, which engulfs Chthonos, completely consuming and devouring it. Chaos is immaterial; it is a principle of nature that dissolves Chthonos’s space as if preying on it. Without Chthonos it could not exist, and vice versa. Chaos destroys Chthonos, reducing it to nothingness. The connection between these two forces is unusually intense, and from it arises Chronos – the principle of nature that could best be compared to the eye of the storm. At the heart of all this consumption, annihilation and destruction, it appears as an element of calm, like an oasis, almost mirage – like, characterized by constancy, regularity, order, even a certain harmony that brings the world into being. Chronos gives birth to all kind of gods. Their fundamental feature is love (philia). They shine brightly with love, which is the force they use to try to overcome the hatred (neikos) of the elements, in order to realize the unified, indestructible, spiritual nature of the world. To this end they create people, animals and plants, and endow them with the potential for love.

Beata Piekarska-Daly is a Polish-born and an Irish-based visual artist, who is environmentally and socially engaged through her multidisciplinary art practices (i.e. painting, environmental installation, video, photography and performance). From 2008 the artist has been living and working in one of Dublin’s university where she explores the value of art in the educational and university context. She was a founder and director of Abbey Studios, established in 2016. Daly’s most current exhibitions include: Over Nature, a group touring exhibition across Ireland; Summer School on Cultural Diversity and Collaborative Practice Residency, a partnership between Create and Counterpoints Arts; TESLA, a locally based video-sound installation and winner of the 1st Prize in Painting Category and the Grand Prize winner during Polska-Eire Festival, 2019. Beata Piekarska-Daly has moved between painting, installation, experimental education and ephemeral installation since she graduated from the multi-media department of the Institute of Fine Arts in Zielona Gora near Poznan, Poland in 1999. Her thesis "New Awareness in the Vehicle of Art" was based on the work and practice of Jerzy Grotowski and caused a stir in the Final Exam Panel as just before handing the original work to the jury, Mr Grotowski had passed away. «I was born in Silesia in the South/West part of Poland. The end of the communist era marked my early life with a journey to my parent 'ancestral' lands. We moved to a completely different cultural and physical landscape known to be the geographical centre of Europe. It is an open-spaced- area - it’s called Masovia. My interest as an artist was shaped very early, not only by the character of the land but by the narratives of songs and stories that my Grandmother and Mother sang and told me as a child, focusing on nature and humans in unity».
