1 tajny stryszek (the secret attic) can open at any moment and in any place. However, this happens rarely, and the exact moment can never be predicted. These are not random encounters. It opens to tell a story, show old trinkets, reveal archival materials, or convey a series of shared memories and thoughts. It is a treasury of unfinished tales, whose resources are impossible to exhaust. Together with Agnieszka  Cieszanowska and Natalia Gil.

2 Texpol a spontaneously formed group of eight artists seeking the place (and meaning) of textiles in the contemporary world.

Where curls of gold, acrylic curtains and reflective jacquards wrap around the space, there hides a cosy portal of collective worry.
In austere interiors, between the walls, textiles take on the qualities of a living tissue that weaves a story – one that is intimate and caring.

Together with  Julia Bujak, Eliza Chojnacka, Agnieszka Cieszanowska, Julia Ciunowicz, Natalia Gil, Julita Goździk, Maria Pietras.
