"(...)
This enchanting longing, painted against an austere, frosty
background; this sense of inevitable loss, helplessness in dealing
with merci- less, cruel nature become the idée fixe for Magda
Franczak. Her works,resembling a book, demonstrate the whole illusory
enchantment of winter identified with the bliss of death, desired
oblivion, destruction which entails freedom. The artist builds her
microlandscapes with paper, chemical formulas, delicate drawings and
structures. Snow and its perfection, temporary geometry, contribute
to a story of helplessness and oblivion. Nature appears to be a
mortal enemy, competing with man, surrounding him, putting him of his
stride, depriving him of freedom, tempting, leading astray, finally
killing him. The main hero, snow, fluffy, perfectly white,
soft, pure, delicate like coconut, so that one could eat it, keeps
falling, and falling, covers traces, buries, freezes.(...)"
