On back cover

Rose is MISS ROSE‘s colour.

Rose is not MISS ROSE‘s attitude

MISS ROSE is rose because MISS ROSE is a girl.

Being “just” a girl is not what MISS ROSE is dreaming of.

The environment is grey: either light grey, medium grey, or dark grey.

Snippets of scattered events.

Life goes on in your mind.

One colour doesn’t say it all.

MISS ROSE is a character observed by artist Marta Płońska .

MISS ROSE is a teenager observing artist Marta Płońska .

Observing me and you.

Like any serious answer to an essential question, Marta’s transcription

of MISS ROSE‘s daily life, using split sentences and graphic drawings,

is subtle and poetic, powerful and quirky.

An art book for thinkers, for dreamers, for thinkers and dreamers.

Christine Burkhard, Editor

 

życie dzieje się w głowie

Opowieść o Miss Rose powstawała przez kilka lat. Początkowo była zbiorem luźno powiązanych rysunków o pewnej dziewczynce, która lubiła szukać swoich własnych ścieżek. Potem od czasu do czasu wydarzały się w życiu bohaterki nowe sytuacje, przeżycia i przygody, ona dorastała. Chciała wszystko zobaczyć i jak najwięcej zrozumieć. Motorem nadającym impuls książce o Miss Rose i samej bohaterce jest ciekawość.
