Joanna Wierzbicka is a Polish-born London-based artist working across photography, sculpture, video, and installation. Through the iterative process of photographing (often with the use of different apparatuses including microscopes and medical scans) printing and sculpting, she brings attention to matter as an active agent and searches for the physicality of forms awakening bodily experiences, evoking tactility and haptics. She seeks descriptions of how we live in our bodies, what is running through and across them, and what other actants have affected us. Often balancing on the line of oppositions such as human/nonhuman, internal/external, and self/the other, she observes how we co-emerge with other forms of matter performing a dance between different agencies
She has completed a master’s degree in Photography at ECAL, The ecole cantonale d’art de Lausanne and a bachelor’s from University of the Arts London. Her work has been presented at Espace Arlaud in Lausanne, Saatchi Gallery, Split Gallery, Generation & Display in London, Fort Photography Institute in Warsaw, and Jedna Dva Tri Gallery in Prague.
