“When creating, one of the biggest questions I keep asking myself is: what really makes us who we are, and how many different versions of ourselves exist depending on the context? A context that, by nature, is never truly objective.” — Elzbieta Zdunek
NEW NAMES is a collection of collage artworks by Elzbieta Zdunek, a Polish digital and analog collagist and former photographer. In this collection, Zdunek explores the dark and subjective perception of ourselves, and captures the “constant doubt, paranoia, and sense of inadequacy that come from being under the public microscope.”
