Dominika Łabądź is an artist and Doctor of Visual Arts. She lives and works in Wrocław. Her practice is interdisciplinary, situated at the intersection of art and social space. She creates installations, video works, objects, and performative and participatory projects, drawing on the methodologies of documentary theatre and engaging in artistic research. She is particularly interested in the relationships between image, language, and experience, and in their capacity to construct meaning and shared narratives. She often works collaboratively, testing alternative models of cooperative action.
