Closeness
About the workshop
The workshops' idea refers to the term "closeness" in the semantic meaning of the word and its transformation in the current scenario. Participants will be divided into two groups and asked to execute a task based on mutual interactions, intuition, emotions, and individual feelings, under the shadow of mystery. In this workshop, we will build around the exchange of information in visual art and text. When we mix them, the results could be visualised in various forms using various artistic expressions. We aim to present the issue of closeness in a new and fresh context. Together we will develop relationships and closeness in a virtually distanced platform. Students are encouraged to investigate their personal style and create an individual message.

Agnieszka Ziemiszewska
Graphic designer, educator, and art curator.
She designs posters, publications, visual identifications as well as social art projects. She regards art not only as a communication and intervention tool but also as an area of unlimited experimentation. Selflessness and freedom, seen as a state in which one does not assume or exclude anything, are the values she considers to be essential in art. She is an alumnus of the Graphics Department at the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź (MA), as well as the Faculty of Graphic Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw (PhD). Agnieszka Ziemiszewska actively participates in international shows dedicated to graphic design and poster. Her works have been presented at exhibitions and events all over the world.
