Ewelina Węgiel
Residency in the frames of Common Field project
Multimedia artist interested in quasi-documentary work that puts her in contact with different human and non-human communities. Together with them, she looks at contemporary intuitions in the context of post-end-of-the-world reality. Process is key for her; all her projects are long-term. She develops relationships with human and non-human actors that allow her to understand the subject matter she is interested in. In addition to the Academy of Fine Arts in Krakow, she studied at the UdK University in Berlin, the ZHdK University of the Arts in Zurich, the LUCA Art School in Brussels. Her work has been shown nationally and internationally - at Piccadilly Circus in London (by Circa Gallery and Jazed Magazine), at Manifesta 14, at the Zachęta National Gallery, at the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, the Centre of Polish Sculpture in Orońsko. After a year-long residency organised by Contemporary Theatre in Szczecin and Munich Kammerspiele, she directed a performance at Contemporary Theatre in Szczecin. Winner of the Artistic Diploma competition in Gdańsk (critics prize), finalist of the Class of 2021 competitions (Circa, Dazed), Hestia's Artistic Journey. She has collaborated with the Goethe Institute and the Harun Farocki Institute. She also collaborates with theatres as a stage designer.
