Cecylia Malik

Trees the protagonists of the works by Cecylia Malik, who draws attention to the deforestation that has taken place in Poland, by contrasting it with life and with mothers who, sitting on what remains of the forest, breastfeed their children.

The war in Ukraine, the fact that the world is unable to stop Putin, the growing power of male dictatorships, greed, the cult of profit, conformism, acceptance of evil, fear.

It can help assimilate the problem, let you feel it. Knowledge alone does not give us anything, we must integrate knowledge with heart and spirit. We are bombarded with drastic information and images, to be able to function we are indifferent to them. Art tells a different story.

I am extremely moved that our performance of the Polish Mother on the Trees Stumps - joined the voices of artists demanding a common home, which is Earth. My gesture of breastfeeding my son, on tree trunk is a gesture of helplessness, but also a manifestation of disagreement.

I think that people watching the exhibition wake up from lethargy for a moment, I hope that it will influence everyday decisions, values and even election decisions.

Ok, I will write to you my private manifesto:
What is the name of your river ?
the world breathers becouse rivers still flow
They carry life, coolness and calm.
Rivers carry fresh water- blue gold
the most precious treasure of the earth.
