Iza Tarasewicz (b. 1981 in Bia\u0142ystok) – <\/em>graduated from the Faculty of Sculpture and Performing Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Pozna\u0144 in 2008. She lives and works in Kolonia Koplany, a small village near Bia\u0142ystok where she grew up. Working with sculpture, installation, drawing and performance, her work has gained significant recognition in the country and abroad. She is the winner of the 2019 Bayerischen Kunstf\u00f6rderpreise award for fine arts and the 2015 VIEWS [Spojrzenia] award of the Deutsche Bank Foundation, in co-organization with the Zach\u0119ta National Art Gallery in Warsaw. In 2013, she was nominated for the Passportu Polityka prize for visual art. Her sculptural installations take the form of modular, flexible and mobile systems, which combine raw and modest functionalism with formal logic found in the natural world, scientific experiments and graphs and diagrams \u2014 figures of thought and diagrams of relationships that systematize knowledge and data and abstractly describe the interaction of phenomena. The artist finds inspiration for her work in classical Greek philosophy and quantum physics<\/div>\n

\u201cI read somewhere in Bacon’s “every researcher of nature is caused to disbelieve what his mind most delights and attracts”\u2026 and this reflects my main journey\u2026 there is no central message, for me there is no centralization of ideas\u2026 everything is parallel and important, there is no device and no faulty elements, it is your type of UNITY, which we usually forget about, because this is our neurological structure, resulting from the evolution of our brain and the history of our ancestors. It was and equivalent to our primitive grandparents who tried at an independent price in a separate environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
