plant
Her immediate environment is reflected in Gabriela Jolowicz's woodcuts. “Similar motifs are documented millions of times a day with the camera phone and distributed on the Internet. Gabriela Jolowicz is now surprisingly capturing these fleeting scenes from modern everyday life in one of the oldest and most traditional visual media: woodcuts. Motifs and restriction to pure black and white remind (...) of popular contemporary media such as comics or graphic novels. "
