Yossifor uses an old medium to paint archaic ideas. A conversation about painting and the construction of history is echoed back and forth between the paint and what is depicted. Her references are archetypes: soldiers, monuments, and painting's own history. These archetypes are painted as a series of failed accounts and ambiguous narratives, and they become about feelings associated with stories already told.

Sixteen artists, sixteen families, sixteen “files.”
Each file holds a family life in its embrace. An entire universe of intimate family life seen through the eyes of the artist unfolds before the viewer’s gaze.
Polski Express III: In the past few years the Polish self-understanding has radically changed. Joining the EU has altered the face of society with economic growth on the one hand, and with the beginning of the crisis on the other. Not everything that has been promised is being realised.
