ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Very basic English in a nutshell:- )) "To Have" is the second the most used verb in English. On the painting inside the "H" there are 25 most common nouns ("man" is number 7, woman - number 14) :- ) , "A" letter is surrounded by 25 adjectives, "V" letter - by 25 most common verbs, and "E" - by 14 prepositions. The white (with a very subtle shade of pink) dots, semi-dots, stripes above and below the red centrally located red-painted strip and two triangles are cut from the same type of paper on which the work is done and glued. That is why I call it: painting - collage. Painted with acrylic Scarlet color and a number of red acrylic markers. Size: 42cm x 56 cm Inch: 16.53 x 22.047 Painted area: 38 cm x 52 cm Painted on Canson 290 g/m2, (140 Ibs) (thick) paper with linen canvas texture that provides an effect that is very similar to genuine linen canvas. This painting has got the same size and is painted with the same red Scarlet color as "True Lies", "Me First", "More Power To You" and "25 Verbs & One Song Of Love" (from the series: Language/Culture Paintings in Red). It will be sent from Warsaw, Poland, EU where currently I am. By now, the artwork is not framed, but if any collector would prefer to have it framed, I will gladly frame it in red frames + white 5 cm Passepartout and send it (for the same price). I will need 10 extra days. Why red frames and white 5 cm Passepartout? Simply it looks great together. And it will look very well on a white wall :-) I love the art in which artists play with words - they give them new meanings, pay attention to the power contained in words or simply emphasize them - my masters are Mel Bochner with his great "BLAH BLAH BLAH", Ed Ruscha, Robert Indiana, Kay Rosen, Jenny Holzer, Bob and Roberta Smith and the greatest - "Maestra" - Barbara Kruger (I Shop Therefore I Am). This painting is my small contribution :-)

Hi, I am Sylvia, I was born and raised in a small Polish city near the Polish-German border. In my art, I try to describe our times – with the main point on language, culture and woman issues - problems, identity, gender. To connect Words with concepts. Art offers an incredible opportunity to communicate -- using as few words as possible.- - with people of all languages and all backgrounds – we can interchange ideas, present certain points of view, transmit them one to another, and even without direct contact, we communicate. During my art studies (postgraduate) I took part in some open juried international art calls for artists. As a result, my first exhibitions were juried international ones. The one I’m especially proud of is 12th Global Biennale of Graphic Design Golden Bee, where the members of preselection online jury came from South Korea, Iran, Czech Republic, Switzerland, USA, Japan and Ukraine and the members of the main jury were from Germany, France, Switzerland, Japan, Russia, Estonia, and the USA. My poster “Dante For Ever” got included in the final exhibition and printed catalog. This event had a huge impact on me, as I found out that my art, in this case, poster art can be understood by people of different cultural ties and backgrounds. After graduation I was supplementing my income by working as a translator in a press agency – that was a great experience that opened my eyes on global issues, and since that time, I try to follow (by internet) all the most interesting topics that will have global impact like e.ex elections in the US. I follow also some of the congressional hearings, as they are much more interesting than feature films ; - ) I hope one day I will visit the USA and the Capitol and watch Congress in session; -) I never know where the inspiration will come from; sometimes it is a short press article, or “breaking news”, sometimes it is a sentence, or an object or a place. That is why I reach for so many seemingly incompatible topics and themes while working with many different techniques. In my digital art, I only use the photos I made, including sometimes pieces of my previous artworks, that I destroyed for a number of different reasons.
