Art Collecting
I have started collecting art shortly after my return to home country Poland in 2019.
Now, after several years my collection became an integral part of my home, mood & travels. A mix of contemporary art including paintings, graphic art editions, comics original art, ceramics & mid-century applied arts.
Always looking for more & always happy to share to discuss and share.
