Purifier

 Purifiers were librarians in Jorge Luis Borges' short story “The Library of Babel”. Their goal was to clean the library from "worthless books".  They strongly believed that these books should be eliminated. 

Other librarians from Borges' story hated the Purifiers for destroying books.

My art depicts the process of eliminating books by one of the Purifiers. Words and sentences break into letters, some no longer make sense or are upside down, and some are backwards...

Krystyna Sadej - Artist statement

“I am fascinated with experimenting and searching for new and abstract ways to share expression through fine art and art tapestry.  I am more interested in colour, form, and space than in creating realistic images.  For the past 10 years, I have been concentrating on creating woven pieces from recyclable materials such as fabric and yarn from old clothes, plastic, foil, and so on.  The fresh and impressionistic look I can achieve with these unconventional materials is amazing; I can attain vibrant colours from the t-shirts strips and dramatic effects from the woven plastic.  I would like to encourage and inspire more artists to adopt something old to create something new, while making a small contribution to protecting our exhausted environment.”
