ANGELIKA MARKUL
THE PLEASURE IS MINE COLLECTION
The collection was born out of the need to speak with one's voice and nurture female qualities and relationships. It is also a declaration of independence in matters of deciding about one's own body, aesthetics, choices, and fantasies. About what we are allowed and what we are not allowed to do. It is deeply affirmative, even stimulating. It warms us to be ourselves. To cultivate relationships and self-realization - also through sustainable fashion. THE PLEASURE IS MINE is thus not only about erotic pleasure but also about the pleasure derived from what and how one wears. Clothing can be an amulet of power; it can embolden and transcend taboos. It can also change habits and predict alliances.

NÓW
"nów" collection
The collection grew out of the friendship and shared fascination of the two artists. It is designed to bring out the repressed, subconscious in the viewer, to emphasize what builds our view of the world. This is what the collection “NOW” is about, for which prints in the form of blobs, like from a Rorschach test, were created by Joanna Hawrot in the inspiration of Markul's works. It shows that fashion is not a simple set of trends, but an area for exploring identity and even metaphysics. The clothes in the “NOW” collection become a tool for learning about our identity and an object of interpretation. Fashion becomes a Roschach test - everyone sees something different in it, although they look at the same thing. In what we must - we see only what we can read.
