Is this okay, or does it make me weak?

Exhibition at Studio Kura Residency Space, Itoshima, Japan. August 2025.

This work is an experimentation of alternative image processing. Inspired by the iridescent bugs she finds on her walks to the studio, Magdalena's pieces are meant to fade over time just like the bodies of these insects. Printed images on plant leaves will decay, cyanotypes and anthotypes will fade with exposure to the sun. Creating this work was an act of healing for Magdalena, leaning into the process of making art to ease her mind.
