ABOUT COLLECTION
3
Natural Curiosities is a nostalgic collection, but playfully. A tribute to those who had the privilege of travelling to the edge of the unknown world. For botanists, artists, scientists who travelled to explore, not conquer. Curiosity about the world was winning with fear or prejudice. The idea for the collection was born during the Epiphytes exhibition in the Łódź hothouse. It was a grey, cloudy winter day. The smell of flowers, their awesomeness and the humid atmosphere of the orangery transported me to the world of flying flowers, bizarre creatures and distant travels.

Julia Gałecka is a polish designer based in Central Portugal now, specialises in creating custom pattern and illustration for any surface. Her distinct holiday vibe is inspired by her Iberian’s nature surroundings & hot summer days. Her design are characterised by richness colours, botanical & animals motifs and bold shapes. Julia uses a combination of hand and digital mediums including watercolour & tempera paints, graphite, cutouts, photography, and digital drawing. From an early age, Julia dreamed of travelling and living in a place full of sunshine, colours and lush nature. After years & many travels she found her place in Portugal. Abundance of Portugal nature, always blooming flowers, is a constant source of inspiration for her projects.
