EDUCATIONAL AND RESEARCH PROJECTS (SELECTION)
| 2022 – 2024 | PERFORMING IDENTITY Project developer, pedagogical supervisor, workshop leader, organizer of the Polish educational block ‘Identity and censorship’, co-author of grant application. Description: 2 years art educational mobility project for students and lecturers for expansion of the field and exchange in Performance Art Education and documentation of ephemeral art between performance courses and spatial activity courses at: ENSAV – La Cambre and ESA Le 75 in Brussels (BE), UAP in Poznan (PL), Burren College of Art (IE), and three festivals: Verão Azul in Lagos (PT), New Performance Biennale Turku in Turku (FI) and (Pas si) Fragile Festival! in Brussels (BE). International Artists and curators are invited to the project in each city to conduct workshops with students. Course scope: The project develops over 4 immersive workshops of artistic research and practice. Students will encounter many art works and research at the intersection between art and knowledge, develop and create their own performative response. The encounter with plurality of pedagogy and with different cultural criteria activates what Performance Art does best, while in dynamic response to the context where it is created. The theme of identity makes this coherent, and anchors it in contemporary problematics. These experiences, along with the opportunity to create new work while being supported by a team of experienced artists and teachers, deliver the necessary tools for student performers to assert real artistic singularities. |

Differences between documenting performance action Author research programme aimed for analysis of the problem of mutual relationship between an unconventional work of art, such as a performance action, and its record, as well as to explore the possibility of reusing such material in a reconstructed form.The main objective was to develop an analysis of the method of working with documentation of performance actions, which, amongst other things, was a subject of my doctoral thesis Mnemonic techniques Residue as an independent entity and memory medium in performance and PhD art practice work (exhibition) defended in Jan 2016. In May 2016, University of the Arts in Poznan published my monograph containing part of my research material, entitled Mnemonic techniques 2009-2016.
