Adam Pańczuk – Karczeby

Adam Pańczuk - Karczeby

“In one of the dialects spoken in the east of Poland, which is a mixture of Polish and Belorussian, people strongly attached to the soil they had been cultivating for generations were called ‘Karczeby’. With their bare hands Karczeby cleared forests in order to grow crops.
The word Karczeb is also used to describe what remains after a tree is cut down – a trunk with roots.”

Adam Pańczuk, born in 1978 in Biała Podlaska / Poland, is a graduate of University of Economics and Academy of Fine Arts in Poznan. He lives and works in Warsaw.
