One year since I visited Bobowa 🕸️
My research (quest) of pre-WWII Polish Jewish bobbin lacemaking brought me to study lace with the amazing Ewa Szpila, visit the international lace festival and the town's Jewish sites.

Grójecka 81
Ahimsa silk, coffee grounds
2024
In 2023 I travelled to Warsaw to see the site where the hot house used to be. It's now a parking lot. Then at the @neonmuzeum , a museum of cold-era (communist) neon signs, I met the public library neon mermaid. After my grandparents escaped and the hothouse burnt down, Grójecka 81 became a public library, and this was its neon (my grandmother, too, became a librarian). Most of Warsaw's neon was destroyed, but this mermaid and only one other survived, and now lives in the museum.
