Buildings and structures lovingly cut out of newspapers, carpets of paper heads, scrolls from cuttings of articles – this is what Katarzyna Józefowicz specializes in. The theme of building is also the leading subject of her creative work. A graduate of the State Academy of Plastic Arts in Gdańsk, where she studied sculpture, and today a lecturer at the Gdańsk Academy of Fine Arts, for years she has composed art made of the material craved for by poets and writers of all types – paper. The piece between the lines comes close to lyric: weaved from parts of speech, conjured from letters, when we look closer we see that not only does it have much in common with that form of literature, but itself is poetry.
-A fragment of a text by Barbara Piórkowska. Catalogue published as part of the exhibition between the lines by Katarzyna Józefowicz, which was held in 2018 at CCA LAZNIA.
