Marta Antoniak

Marta Antoniak has been painting and sculpting in tissue of the 1990s: she creates paintings from melted soldiers and Kinder surprise toys, decorating her work with shiny stickers. Marta also works with disposable tribal tattoos on canvas and creates sculptures out of plush animals. Her toy world does shy away from surrealism or the Apocalypse – it is familiar and disturbing at the same time, just like a distorted song sipping from an old broken music box.
In the jewellery collection created with Todoro, Marta Antoniak’s designs take on a noble dimension: brooches from melted plastic toys are framed in silver (with an engraved signature!), beaded necklaces are combined with precious stones and plastic elements set in silver. Marta transforms the canvas – this time her ideas will live on clothes under the brooches and on the body underneath the necklaces.
