Wings of Freedom – poster
A Poetry Boutique. Personalized poems crafted with care.
Simplified graphic identification.
In 1989, Poland, as a result of the efforts of the democratic opposition represented mainly by the Solidarity Trade Union, regained independence from the Soviet occupation. For Poles, this is an important date, reminding them how important freedom is and how important it is to strive to preserve it. On the 30th anniversary of this important date, a competition for a poster was organized to commemorate the 30th anniversary of regaining independence. My poster was appreciated by the international jury and, as one of several winners, was exhibited at an outdoor exhibition in Gdańsk.
I have been involved in graphic design for many years. I gained experience in international advertising agencies such as McCANN ERICKSON, PUBLICIS, MOMENTUM. I was responsible for aesthetic image and marketing communication at Kino Polska Television and TVP Kultura (until 2015!). Since then I have been working in my own studio located in Warsaw’s Bielany district.
I like inspiring and engaging simplicity in graphic design. Expressive but uncomplicated aesthetic forms, elegant minimalism, interesting typography, ravishing creativity, bold associations and listening carefully to the client.
These are the qualities that I try to follow in my work.
