I am extremely happy to be able to share my knowledge and skills on my own terms after so many years. I have embarked on a path where I finally feel comfortable and valuable.
My first workshops are ahead of me. On the weekend of 21-22 October 2023 I will have the pleasure of teaching creativity. As a musician and as a photographer.
The Creativity Workshops came to me at night, at sea. Somewhere between Sweden and Poland. I was returning from a holiday, from sailing with my father. As I was on the ferry back to Poland, looking out at the sea the idea popped into my head all by itself. I knew this was the direction I had to go.
Many weeks before, I wanted to sing and show my work. But it required a lot from me. I love playing and composing, but I felt that something was missing. Maybe the choice of people I worked with, maybe too much electronics in everything I did. I am ultimately a natural soul. Analogue one.
Then the idea about doing music stopped. I was still composing and singing, but already without this sick push on social media and without the demands placed on myself. Just the pure joy of creativity.
I had a deadline, I had a place and I had funding. All I needed was a bit of time. I gave it to myself.
Today I am spreading the word about the upcoming workshops and the concluding concert. My former students are coming forward confirming how good time they had learning from me. I’m meeting new people and seeing what a lovely group of artists will be creating art with me in a fortnight’ time.
I have never been so happy.
I am grateful to all those who helped me get to this place.
And to myself. I am grateful to myself.
