About the Item
Signed, titled and numbered in pencil by the artist. Edition size: 30.
"The central theme of my works is man and his inner world. I use numerous religious, mythological and historical symbols (Noah, Jonas, Jacob, Sisyphus, Orpheus). Works are dreamlike, oneiric and have a disturbing and unrealistic climate. Permanent symbols such as dogs, dragons and fantastic creatures often appear. The idea of a tower is important for me and it often returns. This is a symbol of the soul, which renders the mysteries of the immaterial world.
The prints correspond with each other, they complement each other creating the endless story. The viewer can search for connections, threads, symbols and literary references which bind the works together. "
A beautiful portrait of a black man juxtaposed with a compass, perhaps referencing the slave trade and the foreign lands people where so many were sent.

Ewa Kutylak
She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw. The subject of work Kutylak oscillates around the animal and plant symbolism combined with stylized depictions or portraits of people silhouettes. These motifs, often scaled to each other, are placed against or in combination with views of gardens and landscapes. Biblical references and scenes reminiscent of the illustrations of medieval bestiaries are also frequent.
She has participated in numerous contest exhibitions in the world (Italy, Belgium, Portugal, Bulgaria, Denmark, Egypt, China).
Winner of the Scholarship of the Ministry of Culture. Received the award at the Guangzhou 1st International Poster and Mini-prints Biennale Exhibition (China) and VIII Biennial of Graphic of Josep de Ribera (Spain).
