About the artwork.
Grażyna Brylewska-Pędzialek often blends photographic imagery with textiles in works that speak to personal, social, and cultural issues. The artist frequently replicates her own image, as in the work Sam na Sam (By Myself Alone). A triple self-portrait of sorts, this provocative piece is an examination of artist as maker and subject as well as a reflection of image, illusion, and memory.
