More information In 1970, Natalia LL, together with Zbigniew Dłubak, Andrzej Lachowicz and Anton Dzieduszycki, founded the PERMAFO Gallery. In their manifesto, the creators of PERMAFO wrote: "The lens of a camera or camera and light sensitive materials can be witnesses of phenomena that elude us from a second to a second...) We can only get closer to knowing the present by increasing the amount of signals received from reality. The concentration of their registration is a guarantee of reducing deformities and errors resulting from selection based on habits, conventions and traditions. The state of perfect registration is the acceptance and recording of all signals running from reality, so the reality itself (...) realizing that the biological and mental structure of man prevents him from receiving all signals from reality we face the need to choose. That's what we're interested in. (...) We're only interested in reality.... Then the artist began to explore the sphere of erotic art. Natalia LL's work has become extremely intimate, and one of the main characters of the shifts has since been her and her partner, as it also happens in the work of the Intimacy Register. The author, according to the rules of permanent art, takes photographs of a sexual act at repetitive intervals. She described her artistic activity in this way: "The series of paintings that I am currently doing is related to man. I'm particularly interested in trying to penetrate the act and physical close-up between women and men. Through photography transferring meaning value I want to present infinite nobility of man, except that the transfer of meaning does not take place on the line of least resistance - i.e. the registration of the state - but through the poetic transposition of the phenomenon." The artist, in spite of the culture of popular patterns, arranged properly and setting up the staff, wanted to show that women and men could be partners in a sexual act without domination and given treatment of any party. Natalia LL sought to mark the balance between the physical and psychic dimensions of a sexual act, which for her is a common experience and goes beyond all borders at the same time. On the outside walls of a single-person boxing artist presented her portraits, after entering the interior viewers saw the walls suspended with photographs of the author's sex acts and her partner and other loving couples.
