About The Artwork

EVENING CHATS LIMITED EDITION PRINT Fine art limited edition print hand-finished with acrylic paint and gloss varnish "EVENING CHATS". Signed and numbered edition of 50. Printed on Somerset Velvet 330gsm paper with deckled edges. Certificate of authenticity on request. 59.4X84.1cm. *** Time of demolition and time of building Another day began for Mrs Agata, just like any other, like all others. Sleepily sliding a cold and dry foot from beneath the covers, Without rubbing her eyes even. With hypnotised movements, she reached for a box Which called to her with colour and shape. Lighting a cigarette with a dance-like movement, She skipped to the kitchen to make some coffee. So as not to waste as much as a second. In this pre-choreographed, almost virtuoso Sequence she visited the bathroom and walked the dog. Even the wind was unable to keep up And untangle her wrinkles, still warm from sleep The multi-storey indifference with which she looks at People passing by, busy with their own affairs. Biting cold, damp shoes, Uncomfortable buses, in which it seemed She sensed nothing A grey face, set in thought like a block of ice Calculating the days to come Gulps of grey smoke between eternity And temporality 12 hours of work needs only coffee and cigarettes She said we are sailing on one raft Half-submerged in a bog The only difference is that I am responsible for us I am steering, I am fixing the holes Which are now piling up. Evening conversations, coffee and cigarettes Pro-educational advertising slogans Discussions about homosexuality In-vitro fertilisation, about Him, About Her, about Him, About Her, About Us – virtual presence More grey smoke to swallow, Minutes, hours. Come evening, she dyed her hair. *** Inspired by a poem I have written at the age of 15. Translated from polish by Marek Kazmierski.

Marcelina is a UK based contemporary artist working with mixed media approaches to print, painting and drawing. She often draws inspirations from her Polish heritage, looking to religious iconography and folk tales, as well as childhood memories, the power of dreams, spirituality, sexuality, and the human condition. According to her Mum, Marcelina started drawing before she could properly speak. She has been featured in publications including Booooooom, Bomb, Art Maze, Create Magazine, Digital Arts, Vogue, Refinery29, The NY Times, Der Spiegel and Ballad Of Magazine. She exhibits work throughout the UK as well as internationally and was a featured artist of the 2017 edition of the London Illustration fair and led a The Big Draw sketch walk for Apple. Marcelina is also a founder of artbrand Mesh Studio. Marcelina says ‘I like to play at the tense borders between lust and innocence; joy and sadness; fun and pain. My interest in juxtaposition comes from my origins and fascination with East European culture which was eloquently described by Grayson Perry as ‘nowhere else could such horrific grief be met with such fairly-tale romanticism’. ‘I tend to utilise nature as a metaphor for everyday feelings and headaches. My recent work also dwells into themes of self acceptance, body positivity, representations of the female sexuality, gender, migration, and society. Although some of the subjects I take on are often quite dark I like to think that there is some humour and light in my finished artwork.’
