Anna Pasierbiewicz
Biography
My first attempts of creating new designs were projects of painting by colour deposit glazings. In 1975 at the initiative of current main technologist Andrzej Skowroński and laboratory assistant Urszula Jałowska, the stamps decorating by hand were introduced to the Cooperative. Together with Zofia Gruszczyńska I made first designs of the stamps decorations and patterns like 60, 64, 67 and 70 were created that time.
Then I started making stamped patterns cut from a sponge. In 1988 I obtained a diploma of “Handicrafter Artist” awarded by the Commission of Artistic Opinions (Komisja Ocen Artystycznych) in Warsaw. The poor market offer and ideas hidden in me made me initiate in 1992 an auteur workshop of unique items. I was inspired not only by the need to create new patterns but also enrich the pattern-designing with stamp and painting combinations. Owing to this enterprise the Cooperative has recruited a number of lovers of unique decorations.
Ceramic products in my decorations among others were presented on the fairs and exhibitions, received prizes and distinctions, like Dobry Wzór 1994 awarded by the Institute of Industrial Design in Warsaw and Wzór Roku IWP in 1995.
