Ewa Juszkiewicz Painter Poland 1984

Ewa Juszkiewicz paints, draws, and creates collages and animations. She was born in Gdańsk on 3rd September, 1984. She lives and works in Kraków. 
She holds a master's degree in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk followed by a PhD earned at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. She is a member of the VJ collective AAA Tanie Wizualki. In the autumn of 2014, the publishing house Thames & Hudson released the album One Hundred Painters of Tomorrow, which lists Ewa Juszkiewicz as one of the painters mentioned in the title. 
As an artist, she chiefly deals with portraits of women. She creates paintings that refer to well-known early modern works, especially Flemish ones. The only difference lies in the way of presenting the portrayed persons’ faces. Juszkiewicz imaginatively distorts these faces or substitutes them with large polypores, the bodies of insects, bouquets of flowers, tribal masks, or draped fabrics. Surrealistic, disturbing paintings loosely based on the originals are created as a result. These works by Juszkiewicz sometimes are copies with a single, subtle alteration.
