From "Beyond" series (2016) Painting by Joanna Sokolowska

Joanna Sokolowska is a contemporary Polish artist. The human being, his inner feelings, life, and psychology serve as the central themes of both her paintings and sculptures. Her most common topic is portrait, human faces. She mixes realistic aspects with an expressive, emotional search for expressive strength. According to the artist, the human body is similar to a temple for her; it is a sphere of the sacrum that contains the full range of feelings and experiences. These states of consciousness are sources of exploration for me to locate those binding traits that make us human. She uses sculpture and painting to translate abstract emotions into three- and two-dimensional forms.
