One of the most boring questions that can be asked in an interview, after the question about inspiration, is "what would you say to yourself if you went back in time?". And so, in my case, I would tell myself that you should not give up everything and start doing creative work right after school (as eventually happened), go and study to be a movie costume designer.. Perhaps then my creative career would have turned out quite differently and there would have been no brand called "Creative collaborator with the Devil". But despite the fact that this did not happen, fourteen years later I am working in exactly this concept and ideology, not just creating shoes and accessories, but telling stories with the help of artistic images, as if they were part of some movie. My latest eighth collection is no exception. I would like it to be something like the old American thrillers, full of primitive special effects and fake blood..

If my work had a soundtrack, it would definitely be baroque music. The sounds of harpsichord and lute always fill the space of my country studio..

In this post, I decided to collect three grandiose works by Handel, in brilliant productions. Below are three operas, Agrippina

- Mark Twain, Personal Recollections of Joan Of Arc.

- Alexandre Dumas, Queen Margot.

"Love is no destruction, but rather instruction, nourishment and sustenance for those who trust in it, for Love is repletion and the abyss and the fullness of the sea." - Marguerite Porete

My library is constantly replenished with books, because I draw all my inspiration from this source.. I don't buy new books, only vintage ones (unfortunately, modern publications have neither beauty nor soul). Therefore, every time it turns into a fascinating search.

When you work with historical sources, it is important to find not only those events or characters that will express the mood of your work, but also details, silhouettes that can become a connecting element between epochs. As I have said many times and as you can read about in my previous

While I'm working on my new Collection no.8 (you can read a little more about it in my previous post here) I want to share a small part of my playlist that sounds during work and fills my studio. These several videos, totaling almost fourteen hours, feature the Baroque and Renaissance music that I love so much..

Historically, it is customary to call the Dark Ages the period of European history from the VI to the X century. But despite the evolution that followed in the following centuries, and I am not sure that it was evolution, the divine light still does not sufficiently illuminate human existence.. Isn't the execution of Joan of Arc a manifestation of absolute darkness? Isn't St. Bartholomew's Night the apogee of violence? All these events, which took place much later than this period, are a legitimate product of the obscurantism of the dark ages. And now it continues to live, deeply rooted in human hearts many centuries ago..

I started working on my eighth collection over a year ago. Gathering information, I was waiting for the right moment when I saw in my head what I needed, when all the pictures and images would form in the right direction. And now I'm finally starting to create my new Collection no.8. For the first time my work will be divided into two parts. And as always, every picture, every date has its own meaning. But more on that later..
