Word of resistance

This solo exhibition highlights the work of Monika Drożyńska, an artist who calls herself “Poland’s chief embroiderer.” Drożyńska sees embroidery as an artistic intervention, a form of activism, a tool for textual expression in visual arts, and a source of creative joy. The exhibition goes beyond her renowned embroidered works to present a comprehensive view of her diverse and less familiar artistic practices. These include examples of community-based art projects and her photographic explorations, which date back to the late 1990s.
