The New Normal is a new series of 5 lithograph prints, specially created by the artist for her solo exhibition at U–jazdowski.

The limited edition prints continue Elia’s affection for the bygone joys of learning at school and the vivid, rich, warm joyful colours of educational illustrations of the 1960s. However, the new normal of 2023 is a different world, a sinister, chilling, a post-lockdown reset reminiscent of Aldous Huxley’s 1932 dystopian novel, Brave New World.
