Stairway

Monika Sosnowska creates an enchanting dialogue between art and architecture. Her works generate tension by suggesting the question: “Already architecture – or still sculpture?” – and vice versa. In terms of content, she draws upon motifs from Constructivism and Minimalism. Formally, Sosnowska is influenced by Socialist Realism, by the modernist functional architecture that shaped the environment in which she grew up in the Poland of the 1970s and 1980s. Sosnowska strives to “create atmospheres,” with the aim of discovering how spaces and emotions interact. {via}
