BREAKING LODZ

“On Piotrkowska there is a fish shop which is very nice because the window is really small and the sign above is “Rybex”. We have always liked the appearance of this place so we put a fish shop in our book.” Joanna speaks abouts Lodz and its historical background. The print of the city is visible alongside any other �adne Halo works.

In their book Sklepy, to go shopping becomes an adventure with no ending. It is also a good example of how the urban structure of the city influenced their work.

What remains steadily on their creative process is the clout of the city buildings.

There is always a hidden green sprout waiting to be discovered.

“When we travel by train we watch throughout the window and we see some really chaotic public spaces.

Some destroyed buildings that make your imagination really work and rethink how it should look. What we could do to make it look better. The problems of the city are really challenging”.

And Joanna stared at the window in silence with a smile on her face.
