This page brings together two trips taken a year apart, two different perspectives on the same country.

The first took me to Gdańsk in 2024, during an artist residency with the Vertige collective. A few months later, I returned to Poland, this time to Poznań, where I was invited as an instructor at the 2025 International Urban Sketchers Symposium.

From one city to the other, the landscapes change, but the same desire remains: to observe, slow down and tell everyday stories through drawing. These pages bring together moments from the journey, encounters and scenes captured on the spot.
