Agnieszka Brzeżańska
Agnieszka Brzeżańska
Born in 1972. Currently lives in Warsaw. She studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk, in Warsaw, and at the Tokyo University of Fine Arts and Music. Her work explores elusive links between various natural forces and life forms on Earth, which she perceives as Gaia, a living organism. In this, she uses various registers of knowledge, from physics and philosophy to systems of cognition marginalized by modern science, such as alchemy, parapsychology, esotericism, native knowledge or matriarchal traditions. She is also interested in contemporary ecological practices. She is an author of paintings, drawings, films, photographs and ceramics. In 2024 Agnieszka Brzeżanska was awarded the Annual Prize of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage in the Visual Arts category.
