My name is Ewa Zwolińska. I am a graduate of the Faculty of Sculpture of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and a scholarship holder of the Accademia di Belle Arti in Carrara, Italy. Artistic education and two years spent in beautiful Italy had a huge impact on my taste, way of thinking, and creating. From the very beginning, my work has been guided by the idea of ​​PAINTINGS TO WEAR, which I want to introduce to everyday life.

Since 2010, I have been running my own brand, EWA ZWOLIŃSKA, where I create collections of clothing for women, fabric patterns, and hand-drawn graphics for printing. My flagship MINEFY series with characteristic watercolor face prints has already become a collection symbol. It is sold successfully in Europe, the USA, and the Middle East. I enjoyed presenting both MINEFY and other collections with success at many international fairs, including at The Ethical Fashion Show, Show & Order, and The Gallery in Berlin, Modepalast in Vienna, CIFF in Copenhagen.

My brand's overarching values ​​are sustainability, ethical production, and awareness of our planet. I want the clothes and accessories I produce to give a sense of uniqueness and commitment, which is why I use certified materials.
Currently, I am creating a collection of scarves, scarves, and a kimono made of ecological Ahimsa silk. Its ethical production does not harm silkworms. I import it from India directly from the creator of this innovative method, so I am sure that I am using the original raw material.

My wearable silk paintings are unique and inimitable. Each of them is a separate story about the beauty of the world, which I perceive naturally through forms, colors, and inspirations with plants, landscapes, and architecture. Painting on silk is a long process that requires time and patience. Many years of work and numerous experiments allowed me to develop my own painting techniques using water-based paints and natural pigments. I always start my work with sketches on paper in ink and watercolor - these are my favorite media.

I create my own collections, for which I invite you to visit the online store. I also work on individual orders and design patterns for companies and designers.
