self-commentary

Under the name of The Art Of Cooperation is an event called KO – Projekt. This is an initiative promoting collaboration between artists. It consisted of an exhibition and a lecture panel. Innovative solutions, interesting combinations of techniques and skills are presented. This is a collection of the best group works of students of Polish art schools, created after 2010. Projects taking part in the exhibition were the result of the cooperation of two or more people.

For the needs of the event I created artistic posters made in techniques of etching and aquatint. Hybrids, non-existent creatures, represent a combination of two different worlds, plants complement missing parts of wildlife. The illustrations present the theme calls – cooperation.
