About Me…

Welcome.

My name is Gabriela Proszowska. This blog has evolved since 2013 into what now I hope to be a place of and for me and my work. You will still find a few posts written in the era prior to art school and I made the choice to keep a few to show my progress, my self development, my life in context.

Statement:

My practice has a basis within traditional sculpture, with a contemporary approach to the context. The process comes hand in hand with the outcome, which includes research and thematic exploration. Together the result becomes complete. My choice of medium is wood for its intricacies, space for symbolism and the varied possibilities of creating. Most recently my research has taken me into the realm of identity, and more significantly the investigation of the relationship between oneself and their nationality. Immigrating as a young child from Poland to the UK allows me to draw emotion from personal experience. Currently, I have begun to develop and branch out into the theme of diaspora, to gain a deeper understanding of cultural development.
