Polyna Kosmadaki with Danae Stratou
As an artist, it is not often that I have the opportunity to be the one asking the questions and so, when invited by Marek Bartelik to participate in this special issue of the Brooklyn Rail, in which artists get the chance to interrogate those who write about our art and ask us questions about it, I jumped at the opportunity.
