it’s not what you think. iwona does not design gummy bears (although a giant gummy worm might be pretty trippy). what iwona does is painstakingly slow. she slices gummy bears of different flavors - her colors, 6 to be exact - and glues them upon photographs she shoots. the result is a bizarre mixed media creation that has a look and feel of its own. when asked about how she came to doing such work iwona replied with the following:
“the attached, is a short “thank-you” to my college art professor who inspired it with an assignment to “make a book”

we’re helping iwona launch her web site, but love these pieces so much, that iwona let us put them up. we”ll update when her site goes up, but in the meantime if there’s any gallery owners out there who’d like to show something new give a holla’.
