DescriptionMarzenia is the Polish word for "dream." The piece is about an "innerworld" where images and meaning are elusive and open to interpretation. The drawing technique may be viewed within a few inches of the surfaces but the drawing's full impact does not become evident until viewed from fifteen feet away.
