kajnikaj
Tam gdzie mapa kraju staje się już bardzo południowa, płowa od słońca, pociemniała
i spalona od pogód lata, jak gruszka dojrzała — tam leży ona, jak kot w słońcu — ta
wybrana kraina, ta prowincja osobliwa, to miasto jedyne na świecie. Daremnie mówić
o tym profanom! (...) Miasto to i kraina zamknęły się w samowystarczalny mikrokosmos,
zainstalowały się na własne ryzyko na samym brzegu wieczności.
Ogródki przedmiejskie stoją jakby na krawędzi świata i patrzą poprzez parkany w nieskończoność anonimowej równiny. Tuż za rogatkami mapa kraju staje się bezimienna
i kosmiczna, jak Kanaan. Nad tym skrawkiem ziemi wąskim i straconym otworzyło
się raz jeszcze niebo głębsze i rozleglejsze niż gdzie indziej, niebo ogromne, jak kopuła, wielopiętrowe i chłonące, pełne niedokończonych fresków i improwizacyj, lecących
draperyj i gwałtownych wniebowstąpień
Bruno Schulz, Republika marzeń
In a small town in rural Poland, a photographer grapples with the distinct ordinariness of this place—and devises an atmospheric series that might grant her a means of escape
laika come back!
Laika was a Soviet space dog who was one of the first animals in space and the first to orbit the Earth. This experiment was performed to prove that a living organism could survive being launched into orbit and continue to function under conditions of weakened gravity. In fact Laika died within hours from overheating and the true cause and time of her death were not made public until 2002
Sputnik 2 was not designed to be retrievable, and it had always been accepted that Laika would die. The mission sparked a debate across the globe on the mistreatment of animals and animal testing in general to advance science.
Series of photo collages and illustrations were self-published as a zin to draw attention to deceitful relation between the dogs and human kind.

claws
- ongoing project initiated in 2022. My death fears and fantasies combined with polish religion, tradition and folklore.
zupa śliwkowa z pyzą drożdżową
- old polish sweet soup made of plums, pears or apples, usually served with steamed yeast dumpling. That recipe is not very common nowadays. I use this term for my diary, where the atmosphere is sweet, sticky and nauseous, but also very unique and nostalgic.
I started this project during the COVID-19 pandemic in Poland when above description seemed accurate, but isn’t it still like that?
