The workshop draws inspiration from the art of Jan Dobkowski, particularly his vibrant and dynamic painting Euphoria. Participants will explore the artist’s fascination with the human body, nature, and the fluid boundaries between them.  

During the session, each participant will create their own artistic leporello – a fold-out, accordion-style booklet – using colored paper, collage techniques, and drawing. Through experimentation with form, texture, and color, the group will reflect on themes of transformation, movement, sensuality, and the pulsating energy of life that characterize Dobkowski’s work. 


İlsu Kaya is a multidisciplinary artist and educator originally from Turkey. She studied painting as an undergraduate and then Art Education and Curatorial Studies as a graduate student, and completed postgraduate pedagogical studies at the University of Fine Arts in Poznań. İlsu has extensive experience working with different age groups, especially in conducting creative workshops for children and children with autism. Her personal artistic process is driven by her love for illustration and abstract painting, and she often combines different artistic techniques such as collage and photography. İlsu is passionate about creating, teaching, and sharing her creative journey with others.
