Ewa Konart’s first name is spelt with a W which is pronounced like a V because she came from Warsaw, Poland. From Warsaw she brought with her a small rat skin suitcase packed with playful imagination and crafty resourcefulness which she uses to create silkscreened prints under the label My Missing Pet and to scavenge vintage garments upon which to place complementing prints. Ewa gets much of her inspiration from lost animals she rescues from hoodlums in alley ways.
Nickname: Screener
