With /now playing/, Gabriela Jolowicz presents linocuts and woodcuts whose ordinary everyday themes result from the artist's immediate experiences. Portrayed in a traditional technique, the prints attain a unique character through their idiosyncratic subject matters (music club, tattoo, McDonalds) and their excessive, partly delicate and partly crude surface delineations. They combine a seemingly realistic manner of representation and means of de-familiarization such as perspective distortion and an exuberant textural denseness.
