OUR GUIDE TO CURATING YOUR PERSONAL ART & DESIGN COLLECTION
Anna Bera is one of our favourite Polish artists. She mainly takes inspiration from observing the relationship that exists between humans and nature, which results in her organic and functional art. Using wood as her main medium, her unique, sculptural objects are versatile and are left up for interpretation to encourage users to create their own meanings and relationship with each object.
‘‘There’s a moment when something that hasn’t previously existed as a possibility comes about magically, as it were, because it happens unexpectedly and immediately, incontrovertibly, you might say. The appearance of that something isn’t the result of deliberations, of observation and ascertainment, but belongs under the category of yes-no. Existence-non-existence. And, as with something which was not, but is, what’s astonishing in the end is the obviousness of that something’s existence. Because that something comes about without my participation. This isn’t creating, but more a matter of watching as it emerges or rather as it simply is, because it doesn’t appear, it doesn’t emerge in time, there’s just nothing and then... something. Although, perhaps, even if there isn’t nothing, because there’s no impression of an empty space, the consciousness of the possibility of that something doesn’t exist.’’ - Anna
