“Hand-drawn geometric stippling artwork titled Echo of Fibonacci by Joanna Potepa

GEOMETRY OF LIFE

Begin with the book — where the geometry of life shows through ordinary moments.

The first doorway into my world — It Happened: Make of It What You Will.

A two-month road journey told in fragments.

Book

Short scenes from a life stretched between countries.

Still Frames

Hand-drawn geometry built from structure, rhythm and attention

Artworks

Studio & Process

A quiet table, one line at a time.

Everything starts by hand: pencil, paper, rulers, compasses and time. No generative software. No 3D rendering.

The drawings begin as light construction lines and slowly become dense systems of curves, circles, grids and small decisions.

Most of the work happens at one table. The pace is slow because the drawing needs it. Every line has to be placed by hand.

After scanning, the drawings are cleaned carefully for print. The small imperfections stay. They are part of the work — proof that a human hand was there first.

Below are construction lines and fragments from the drawings as they grow — slowly, by hand.
