Graphite on canvas, 80 x 60 cm, signed and dated on the reverse.
Emotion, gesture, trace. Hormonogram is one of the pages of a peculiar diary, a series of paintings on which each successive day was noted with a spontaneous hand, possibly detached from thought. A woman's body is particularly ruled by hormones, strongly influencing emotions and reactions. The series is an attempt to listen to the body.
The painting was presented during several solo exhibitions of the artist:
- "One Direction of Time" at Gallery M in Wroclaw in 2015.
- "Lapidarium" at CK Agora in Wroclaw in 2015.
- "Everything I touch turns to lines" at BWA Galeria Sanocka in 2016.
