I update my weblog so rarely, that different and sometimes contrasting inspirations such as childhood and its' innocence and adulthood and sex mix in it. I myself seem to be somewhere between those 2 states of mind and ways of living.

Recenlty at my yoga classes I came across a small magenta leaflet of Mua Mua Design studio. I visited MM weblog. It is a project of Karolina Gościniak- a diplom designer from Poland inspired with her baby daughter. All illustrations, photographs and hand-made toys are dedicated to the little girl and her childhood world. Karolina also designs jewlery. She photographs her baby playing with the toys and posters of her own design. It is a lovely excample of how an artist can be even more creative with a child and join art and parenthood. It breaks a stereotype which says that a baby creates boundaries and that an artist can be creative only partying, drinking and abusing life, not taking care of a little human being. I most of all like crazy toys which come in different patterns.

BLUE BEARS



Blue Bears are hand-made sad toy mascots by a Polish artist Paulina Korbaczyńska. Just like Nick Drummond's AT-AT robot, Blue Bears appear in every day situations. They seem to have their personality and private life. They are a bit melancholic. They read newspapers, play games, do the laundry, travel and socialize. They seem to be very thoughtful. They are very close to my heart.

If You fancy Paulina's bears, she may make one for You, if You write her an e-mail: korbaczynska@wp.pl.
