Let me introduce you to an amazing artist - Maggie Piu (Małgorzata
Bieniek-Strączek) who I came across via facebook. Maggie was born in Krynica, a small resort town in Poland. Brought up in a family of artists for generations, she continues
this tradition with dedication. The passion of her life is
painting and artistic drawing, a form of art which has influenced her
imagination and creativity since childhood. Architect by profession, Maggie
lives, works and creates in Cracow.
Her work has been shown in many exhibitions in London, Warsaw, Krakow, Katowice, Lublin, and other cities across Poland and Europe.

In her artistic preferences Maggie is
spiritually associated with an image of the woman of the
“fin-de-sciecle”period. This fascination with femininity is prominently contradictions as the aesthetics of “art
nouveau”. It combines the vision of a woman from the turn of the century with
the surrealistic image of the female’s body-wrapping in the fairy tale
mysticism.
Her work has been published in many magazines (fashion & art) and she also won many prestigious awards.

Maggie is an amazing artist and her
work is truly magnificent. There are many artists out there which I truly admire
and Maggie is definitely one of them. Have a look at her blogs where you can find more info about the artist and I
hope you will fall in love with her interpretation of femininity as I did.
