Opis i specyfikacja
Monika Osiecka$972s Mirror Fragments is a fascinating record of a woman$973s experience, an artist$974s self-reflection. It is an intimate diary composed of words, sculptures, and the author$975s own photographs.
Don$976t be misled by the impression that the central focus of this unusual publication, this album, yet not album, is the image. Subtle nudes, female figures emerging out of stone, rugged abstract forms with mysterious sounding names like $977Biała Marianna$978 (White Marianna). Don$979t think of it as travel sketches, at the center of which are huge blocks of marble in Carrara. Or the stone door-frame of an exotic temple. Or words.
Mirror Fragments is a journey of beholding. You can begin reading anywhere you please; the words compliment the images; the images take you to story lines recorded in poetic micro narratives; we discover motifs common to both in photographs brought back from sculpture symposiums or from expeditions to far-off places. Photographs of a pleated dress from Pietrasanta, which lies like the folds of the marble cliffs in Carrara, is linked in the artist$980s vision with the rhythm of the gothic stairs in Wells Cathedral. $981My life is fragments of a mirror, in each bit another world$982, she writes of herself. $983All that holds them together is my looking.$984 We follow this vision on every page of this beautifully edited book.
Monika Osiecka reveals for us a private tale, woven from fragments: of the joys of creation, of a woman$985s sensuality, and of the experience of motherhood. Of love and good-byes, the trauma of being hospitalized and the ecstasy of a journey with no destination. She writes in this artistic self-commentary, so rare in Polish art, $986Creation is the one time of complete fulfillment that I know.$987 The material of her creative works is mostly stone. The analogy, the sisterly contiguity of the artist$988s material and experience is a feature of her entire ouvre.
