In 2013, I had a serious car crash. This was just the beginning of misfortunes. In time, that what seemed tamed became wild and came back as a revelation. My own physicality and pain became the source of my work. This is how the series got more personal, direct and corporeal. Behind each picture lies a story that doesn't need to be told at all- says Marta Zgierska about the origins of the series' creation.
