Malgorzata Lebda will appear at the European Writers’ Festival as part of the panel ‘Back to Nature’ chaired by Antonia Lloyd-Jones in which three award-winning, multi-talented female writers (aka poets, translators, marathon runner and photographer!) return to nature to tackle the threat of climate change, violence, war, poverty and injustice. But these exceptional books are far from depressing, elevating these stories of girls, women and grandmothers, with profound emotional truths, sharp satire, glowing prose and the solace of nature.

Polish Fashion Stories: Unexpected Encounter – Batik

The earliest known examples of Polish batiks appeared around 1903 at an exhibition in Kraków, when the artist Jan Bukowski presented furniture upholstered in textiles decorated with what was called then “a manner of Easter eggs” - it was before the term batik had even entered the Polish language. From this point, other Kraków artists began to further explore the technique and its possibilities.
