Roden Branch hosts a Polish American Heritage Month art exhibit from October 1 to December 30 featuring Chicago artist Johanna Szymanska.
Artist Statement
“My creativity started more than two decades ago, beginning with several years as visual arts teacher in Poland. This sensibility is reflected in my current work. Now I produce nature and cityscapes that are graphic and contemporary in medium of digital art photo manipulation. The photography is only the beginning for my interpretations.
Originally from Poland, I have a master of arts in visual arts education from The Maria Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin, Poland (at Professor Stanislaw Gorecki’s graphics workshop).
Later I adjusted my professional development by implementing new technologies in the process of creating and exhibit. I occasionally contribute in The International Art Groups Web-Collections, offer my personalized art cards and also my photography service in my community and nonprofit organizations.
The activity on the Internet keeps me connected to my family, friends and followers in North America and Europe, by my up-to-date website. My work and I are easily accessible as a result of my frequent digital art posts and social media contributions.”
