JUSTYNA KOSTKOWSKA

ARTIST STATEMENT
My favorite subjects are wild and semi-wild landscapes, especially of rural Tennessee and Poland. Many of my paintings portray places that have since been developed and cannot be experienced anymore, art serving as their only remaining documentation. I believe painting is a sort of personal diary, the emotion felt for your subject always visible in the art you create.

Our Marley Berger gallery is not only our main lobby area but the home of local rotating craft artists throughout the year. This intimate space is the perfect spot for a small soiree with hors d'oeuvres.
