We have learned to synthesise them from plants. It is wonderful to observe something so inconspicuous and suddenly discover that among weeds and other species that we tend to ignore or eradicate, most plants are for us a sort of a readily available pharmacy. They grow for us and offer their support. Once we begin to notice and discover them, we find out that they give us signals. This is particularly apparent in a meadow, when our attention is directed to the plant world. Plants are living beings, endowed with extraordinary properties and abilities. As they use the laws of quantum mathematics to calculate photons, they are able to process the energy from light and create from it the chemical compounds we need. What is more, they give us access to themselves, which means we don\u2019t have to sneak into the wilderness and poach protected plants. Communication with plants is not one-sided \u2013 what we do with this fact is up to us. Even flower meadows growing by tram tracks in cities are made up of native species, such as tansy and sedum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>One of the works on display is a herbarium you made as part of your studies at the Institute of Polish Herbology and Nature Therapy.<\/strong> <strong>What plants are included in it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had long been thinking about making a herbarium, but I was not interested in creating an artwork. I try to avoid such literal works, so this is rather a herbarium in a 1-to-1 scale that is the result of my studies. I made it in line with the established tradition and principles. I chose plants that caught my eye. Initially, I planned to group them, but after a while I decided that the final form would have a more organic feel. It is the result of six or seven field trips, during which I collected whatever plants at the right size I managed to find. Many plants are souvenirs from walks and travels \u2013 I found some of them in the summer while sailing down the Narew river on a barge, others I picked near my home in Warsaw, the rest I brought from somewhere in Europe or a trip to Soko\u0142owsko.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Bylica-pospolita-w-zielniku-Agnieszki-Brzezanskiej-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-95517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Bylica-pospolita-w-zielniku-Agnieszki-Brzezanskiej-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Bylica-pospolita-w-zielniku-Agnieszki-Brzezanskiej-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Bylica-pospolita-w-zielniku-Agnieszki-Brzezanskiej-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Bylica-pospolita-w-zielniku-Agnieszki-Brzezanskiej-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Bylica-pospolita-w-zielniku-Agnieszki-Brzezanskiej-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-332x222.jpg 332w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Bylica-pospolita-w-zielniku-Agnieszki-Brzezanskiej-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-664x444.jpg 664w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Bylica-pospolita-w-zielniku-Agnieszki-Brzezanskiej-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-650x433.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><sup>One of the plants in Agnieszka Brze\u017canska&#8217;s herbarium, photo by Tomasz Kaczor<\/sup><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What surprised you?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On many occasions I was convinced that I had collected one plant and it turned out to be a completely different one. For example, water hemlock is easily confused with other plants from the celery family. If you are not certain, you shouldn\u2019t touch these plants, because some of them can be deadly. Intuition can sometimes be very helpful, although phytochemistry is so complicated that collecting herbs requires knowledge \u2013 a thorough understanding of plants. As I do not plan to become a doctor, I treat herbology rather as a store of knowledge that allows me to competently help myself and my loved ones. The course I completed is just the beginning and I know that it takes many years of study to become a herbalist, and at the same time to develop your own style and befriend plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In your journey on the trail of medicinal herbs, you focus on common mugwort (Latin: <em>Artemisia vulgaris<\/em>). Why did you choose it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have always been fond of common wormwood because of its silver colour and wonderful scent, but gradually I learned about many aspects of common mugwort, which is a highly gentle and safe anti-inflammatory and cleansing agent. It was part of Slavic rituals and folklore, so you could say it\u2019s our traditional witcher\u2019s herb. It\u2019s a plant that helps with dreaming, and when someone wants to work with lucid dreaming, the mugwort infusion is very helpful. It can be smoked like cigarettes, it can be used as incense to fumigate houses, but it\u2019s also in use in ancestor rituals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The title <em>Ancestors<\/em> also covers a series of small ceramic objects with an abstract form, which can be found at the exhibition. Who or what are the titular characters?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1055\" src=\"https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/18.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-95353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/18.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/18.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/18.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-768x506.jpg 768w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/18.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-1536x1013.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/18.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-650x429.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><sup>Photo by Tomasz Kaczor<\/sup><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe they\u2019re \u201cthought-forms\u201d \u2013 portraits of many incarnations at once. Or maybe they\u2019re actually our ancestors, existing in a different density, which is why they take on an indeterminate amoeboid form. Their representations verge on abstraction, and I wanted them to suggest an idea of \u200b\u200bwhat we are outside matter, before and after physical existence. I would prefer not to define \u201cancestors\u201d too specifically, because their nature is open, related to various beliefs and premonitions that we carry within ourselves. I do not engage in phenomenology or magic here, but I believe that all these characters that I create are benevolent to us humans \u2013 just like our ancestors and descendants, who are a part of us. I believe that the reality surrounding us is conscious, cooperates with us, answers our questions, takes care of us and is benevolent to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Archaeologist Marija Gimbutas, author of <em>The Living Goddesses<\/em>, proposed a new perspective on the past of Western culture, suggesting that in the Neolithic period, social order was founded on egalitarian structures, and women held a prominent place in hierarchies. How do you relate to these kinds of narratives testifying to the matriarchal origins of the world?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would have to go back a decade in my memory, when I was creating the <em>Ziemia rodzinna <\/em>[<em>Family Land<\/em>] series. At the exhibition of the same title, I showed vases in the shape of women\u2019s breasts, fashioned in a way bringing to mind prehistoric artefacts found in all cultures of the world. It was my way of reconnecting with a more authentic spirituality and faith. In Polish, the word <em>ziemia<\/em> means both soil and the space of local identity, similar to the German word <em>Heimatland<\/em>. Starting from that I began to reflect on regaining our identity and continuity of life on Earth. The word <em>ziemia<\/em> is fitting here also because it reflects my idea of \u200b\u200bfractal continuity: I start from my own garden, inherited from my grandmother, where I studied the land and soil, and that extends to planetary consciousness. I think that today we are witnessing a strong process of regaining this kind of awareness of one\u2019s identity, but this cannot be done in a globalist way, but rather from within ourselves. In order to reconnect with our roots and regain awareness of where we come from, we need a stronger contact with <em>ziemia <\/em>(land\/soil).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1067\" src=\"https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/14.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-95347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/14.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/14.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/14.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/14.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/14.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-332x222.jpg 332w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/14.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-664x444.jpg 664w, https:\/\/muzeumwarszawy.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/14.-fot.-Tomasz-Kaczor-650x433.jpg 650w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><sup>Ancestors supporting the earth, photo by Tomasz Kaczor<\/sup><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nowadays we observe a great interest of the art world in topics related to nature, or perhaps a return to reflection on the relationship of humans with other species and the environment. Where do you think this comes from?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am glad that many people are engaging in these important subjects. While I realise that following trends can be risky, I am generally optimistic. I believe that as a human race we need to reconnect with our bodies and nature, learn to take notice of them and respect them. We need to invent a new way of living on the Earth that does not destroy and pollute the environment. In <em>Inflamed: Deep Medicine and the Anatomy of Injustice<\/em>, Rupa Marya and Raj Patel show how political processes and inflammatory processes in our bodies intertwine \u2013 suggesting that global warming is a sort of fever induced by poisoning, also on a psychological level. I think that talking only about global warming does not capture the essence of the problem; the key is to put an end to industrial pollution. It is also advisable to address the problem of bureaucracy. Bureaucracy converts everything into numbers, often overlooking the complexity of ecological processes, and furthers the interests of large corporations, especially the military industry, whose environmental impact remains almost completely outside official statistics, despite the fact that the ecological damage caused by wars is unimaginable. On a deeper level, individual and collective traumas and negative emotions translate into inflammatory processes. Our existence on the Earth will hinge on understanding these processes \u2013 not only in nature, but also in our psyche, bodies, family and professional relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can art have a therapeutic effect?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I personally know two people who said that seeing a painting by Stefan Gierowski saved their lives, so, yes, absolutely, it can. Art has certainly saved my life many times too. It is a way of coping with ourselves and the world. I think that now, when many people have lost faith in the church and cannot find certain ideas in religious messages, we feel a need for contact with something greater. Art can also become a portal through which one can experience the world in a contemporary, accessible and honest, rather than ritualised, way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/muzeumfarmacji.muzeumwarszawy.pl\/en\/wystawa\/agnieszka-brzezanska-on-herbs-trees-and-lichen\/\">On herbs, trees and lichen<\/a><\/em><br>November 21, 2024 \u2013 March 2, 2025<br>PLN 12 regular \/ PLN 8 concession, free Thursday<br>Museum of Pharmacy, 31\/33 Piwna St.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Agnieszka Brze\u017ca\u0144ska<\/strong> (born in 1972) studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gda\u0144sk and in Warsaw where she obtained the diploma of the Prof. Stefan Gierowski\u2019s Painting Studio.
