A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź. Also studied at the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of Warsaw, currently a PhD student at the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow.

 

I translate my observations into performative activities, videos and site-specific installations. I'm  focused on the relationship of the body, space and ideas, often using word games and humor in my works.

 

I have carried out individual exhibitions such as: Slapstick at Karlin Studios (Prague CZ 2021), Basis in Pracowni Portretu Gallery (Łódź 2018), Guide to martial arts at the Poleski Ośrodek Sztuki (Łódź 2018) and Condition in Czynna Gallery (Łódź 2017).

 

I took part in group exhibitions, incl.: Pandemic consequence: dreams at the Serce Człowieka Gallery during Warsaw Gallery Weekend (2020), Scheitern/Failure at Artburst (Berlin DE 2019), Akces at the Biennale WRO w BWA Studio (Wrocław 2019),  Ghost Expedition, Astana Art Show w TSE Art Destination (Astana 2018), NO Budget SHOW 10 at Center of Polish Sculpture (Orońsko 2018), Capital, exhibition, 16. Survival Art Review (Wrocław 2018), Performance Platform at Labirynt Gallery (Lublin 2017).

 

I also participated in festivals, including: 14. International Land Art Open Air at the Poleski Ośrodek Sztuki (Lodz, 2021), Kick Off Perfo at the UL Gallery (Gdańsk 2021), Interference Festival (Gdańsk 2019), Interactions Festival at ODA (Piotrków Trybunalski 2019), 11th In Out Festival at Łaznia Center for Contemporary Art (Gdańsk 2017).
