The text on the collage says: “When visiting friends, observe social forms; be careful not to embarrass your parents or yourself”.
This is another work from the ‘Stories about femininity’ series. All works made from my photographs, portraits of women and nature and excerpts from a Polish book on the education of young ladies from 1913.
The texts are funny and frightening at the same time.
There are many emotions involved in making such a collage. I get down to it, sometimes for a very long time. But each approach is incredibly fruitful. I am proud of every single one.
I believe that every single one of them will find their person and adorn their wall.
For the sake of beauty and as a warning.
