He also uses various techniques or collaborates with professionals to build “participatory sculptures” – objects, inventions, “art tools,” machines, or other instruments that actively engage the viewer by forcing them to behave in a predetermined way. He also creates “attributes” that he uses in public appearances. He regards his works as a commentary on the current socio-political situation and the reality around him.

Jarosław Słomski

He uses sculptures, objects, and installations to explore the metathemes of memory, Silesian and national identity, and the individual experience of everyday life.

Students from the Academy of Fine Arts in Szczecin

Natalia Sara Skorupa (she/her)
Born on January 18, 1999 in Szczecin, Poland. Daughter of Beata and Jerzy, she is a spciologist, filmmaker and curator by profession. In her artistic practices she focuses on all kinds of audiovisual forms in the context of sexuality and corporeality. She eagerly uses the medium of performance, in which she explores the limits of pain in the perception of art transgression and the relationship created between the viewer and the artist as an elementary concept of externalization or so-called Artistic Vivisection. She received a scholarship from the Minister of Culture and National Heritage in 2022, and her work has been recognized in Taiwan, Dubai, Singapore, Mexico, Germany, Czech Republic, Macedonia, India, Chile, Italy, Austria, Brussels, Colombia and several cities in Poland, among others.

Kacper Janowski
Visual artist, performer, student at the Academy of Art in Szczecin. The artist treats art as a form of play, continuing to explore and experiment with a variety of media. Recently, he has been particularly fascinated by the mental and physical boundaries that he himself possesses. He began using performance relatively recently, in January 2024. His artistic actions were quickly noticed, which resulted, among other things, in his participation in the Perform II Performance Festival organized by the Hive Gallery in Gdansk. He was also invited by the Performance Art Foundation to Lublin to address the current state of Europe and perform a performance action at one of the events. Thanks to his intensive activities, the artist has established cooperation with theaters in Szczecin. He also participated in the Polish-German performative project “Walls of Europe.” He is currently working on a number of projects that will soon see the light of day.

Amelia Pelc-Gonera
Lodz-based artist whose main interest for over a decade has been dance and hip-hop culture. She is a 1st year student of Media Art at the Academy of Art in Szczecin. She became interested in performance when she began her studies, where she began to look for correlations between this type of art and movement.

Krzysztof Leon Dziemaszkiewicz

Performance artist, painter and creator of objects. Born in 1963 in Lipiany, from 1982 to 2014 he lived in Sopot, where he actively participated in the artistic and cultural life of the region, starting from the period of his studies at the University of Gdańsk, through his involvement in theaters: Teatr Ekspresji, SFINKS and Teatr Patrz Mi Na Usta, to his individual performances. At present he lives and works in Berlin.

Dziemaszkiewicz has also been creating paintings and objects for many years. He works using an original technique he calls “tape art,” in which the basic tool and material is adhesive tape. Tape and the artist’s body have always been important elements in his work, so tape art has been a natural consequence and evolution in the artist’s performances.

Dziemaszkiewicz’s transgenic and transsexual work is intended to connect opposites and raise questions about the boundaries between humanity and animalism. His work taps into premonitions, instincts and emotions, and its overriding principle is sincerity. His uncompromising stance in the face of social constraints results in a unique language of artistic expression. The artist is what he wants himself and his work to be – in the name of the freedom of every human being. Dziemaszkiewicz’s art has been shown in the USA, China, France, Germany, Turkey, the Czech Republic and Canada, among others. He fully identifies himself with his work.


Barbara Gryka

Artist and performer, born in Końskowola near Puławy in 1992. From the age of 6 to 16 she danced in a folk group. She studied at the Faculty of Media Arts of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw.

Robert Kuśmirowski

Performer, creator of installations, objects, photographs and drawings. Born in 1973 in Łódź, in 1998–2003 he studied at the Institute of Fine Arts of the Marie Curie-Skłodowska University in Lublin, where he graduated with a diploma in sculpture from the studio of Prof. Sławomir Mieleszka. He spent the academic year 2002–2003 at the Metal and Modeling Studio at the University Rennes 2 and at the Musée des Beaux-arts de Rennes. He is associated with the Foksal Gallery Foundation in Warsaw, Johnen Galerie in Berlin and Guido Costa Projects gallery in Turin. He is the winner of the 2011 Prize of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage in the field of visual arts, the “Polityka” Passport for 2005 and many other awards. Since 2007, he has been working at the Intermedia Department of the Institute of Fine Arts of his alma mater and at the Sammer Academy in Salzburg (2013–2014). He lives and works in Lublin.

Most of his works are based on the reconstruction or copying of old objects, documents, photographs, or rather on the creation of their delusively similar imitations. Often, they do not have a specific prototype, but only evoke the material culture of a certain time. However, their characteristic feature is utmost precision and meticulousness. In the larger installations, the artist’s passion for collecting becomes apparent – the accumulated objects make up mindboggling collections, described by Joanna Mytkowska as “baroque of excess and entropy of detail.” That is how Kuśmirowski returns to the issues of memory, history, and nostalgia that accompany the visual culture of the distant and recent past, slowly disappearing under new layers of time. This strategy accounts for the recurring vanitas theme in his oeuvre – the reconstruction of a past material culture becomes a means of addressing the issues of transiency, vanishing, and death. His performances, sometimes accompanied by music composed by the artist, are of a similar character.
