Michalina Bigaj, Magdalena Lazar, Ola Nenko
- Three women sculptors transform the space of the Ujazdowski Castle into a welding workshop. They walk, measure, and connect, focusing on practical activities. They talk to staff members about what they lack in their workplace: from a newspaper shelf to a toilet paper stand. The artists negotiate and make decisions about where and why to place a utilitarian metalwork object: art captured in a brush stand.
- “We want the artistic objects we create to be used outside the main exhibition spaces – in offices, corridors, and social rooms. We are a service point for art workers, because they are usually the ones who serve us by organizing our exhibitions,” declare Magdalena Lazar, Michalina Bigaj, and Aleksandra Nenko.
