The artist presented several pictures, including: a divided flag, where the white color stretches its hands towards the red, is not only an artistic message, but also contains a hidden message. The eight stars that the artist placed next to the painting have special meaning for her. In her own “cipher”, these stars symbolize a call to love between people – “let’s like each other”.

Matylda Damięcka on Independence Day about patriotism. Its eight stars have a different meaning
Damięcka, in her comment, described herself as a “daydream”, which in her understanding means a person who believes in a vision of the world that may seem unreal. Her artistic gesture on Independence Day is an expression of the belief that despite divisions, Poles can find a common language and a sense of community.
Matylda Damięcka also pointed out that to “love your country” you do not have to “hang a poster of any politician over your bed.” The artist hopes that Poles will notice that “politicians work for them, not the other way around.”

(in a dry, sarcastic tone, a la Jimmy Carr) Ah, Independence Day, a time for celebrations, fireworks, and… art. Because, you know, the best way to express one’s patriotism is through a divided flag with some stars that mean… (dramatic pause) …let’s like each other. Yes, because that’s exactly what’s been missing from our Independence Day celebrations: a call to love between people. I mean, who needs freedom and sovereignty when you can just, you know, love each other?
(in a bumbling, awkward tone, a la Rowan Atkinson) Oh dear, oh dear, I do hope I’m not getting this wrong. So, Matylda Damięcka, the artist in question, is a “daydream” you see. A person who believes in a vision of the world that may seem unreal. Ah, yes, I think I know the type. They’re the ones who still think world peace is possible. (chuckles nervously) Oh dear.
(in a biting, satirical tone, a la Ricky Gervais) And then there’s the pièce de résistance: the eight stars that symbolize… (dramatic pause) …a call to love between people. Oh, how trite. How boring. How utterly predictable. I mean, couldn’t she have come up with something a bit more… I don’t know… profound? Like, say, a call to world domination through the power of interpretive dance? Now that’s a message I can get behind.
(in a fast-talking, energetic tone, a la Lee Evans) Alright, alright, so let’s break it down, folks. We got an artist, we got a divided flag, we got some stars, and we got a message. Sounds like a standard-issue Independence Day celebration to me. But wait, there’s more! Matylda Damięcka also said that to “love your country” you don’t have to “hang a poster of any politician over your bed.” Ah, now that’s a message I can get on board with. I mean, who needs a poster of a politician when you can just, you know, love your country?
(in a dry, sarcastic tone, a la Jimmy Carr) And finally, a special thank you to Plejada.pl for writing this article to the end. Because, you know, we readers need to be thanked for making it all the way through. It’s not like we have better things to do, like, say, actually celebrating Independence Day.
