Anna Gawecka - Visual Artist
A blend of textile artistry and the fascinating world of photography
I’m Polish, currently based in Amsterdam. I’m passionate about textiles and photography, especially lightpainting and long exposure techniques.
Since 2014, I’ve been exploring the captivating realm of lightpainting, using the enchanting play of light to bring my artistic visions to life. It’s been a magical adventure, filled with breathtaking moments and incredible experiences.
In 2021, I decided to take a break from photography, seeking new paths of artistic expression that would ignite my joy and creativity. That’s when I discovered the therapeutic art of embroidery, which became a source of meditation and inspiration for me. As I delved deeper into the world of textile art, I gradually embraced additional techniques such as crochet, punch needle, and finally, tufting.
While my love for lightpainting remained strong, I decided to merge it with my textile projects, adding light to my creations as a way to infuse them with a unique and mesmerizing touch. Thus, connecting my two passions created a moment in life where I feel truly complete.
Thank you for visiting my portfolio and accompanying me on this artistic adventure.
