ARTIST STATEMENT

I’m a visual artist based in Poznań, Poland. My artistic practice focuses in-between the fields of painting and sculpture. I am interested in the artwork as an object, its relationship within embodied space, and its presence in the perceptual field as the interface superior to all phenomena. I use materiality to express qualities from the edge of visual representation and to evoke emotions hidden under the surface of sight.

I graduated from Magdalena Abakanowicz University of the Arts in Poznan where I received an MFA (2011) and a PhD (2019). I’m currently working there as an assistant professor at the Studio of Painting in Architecture @malarstwo.w.architekurze and as a co-curator at Szewska 16 Gallery @galeriaszewska16.
