Growing up in communist Poland was not a very colorful experience. However, we did our best to make the most of it. My memories from the 1980s are very grey and I always wished I had a magic wand that I could use to add some color to the everyday surroundings. Years later I started an art project - Old Spaces/New Colors in which I attempt to color the reality I remember by creating digital collages with the use of original photos from the past.
