Agata Wieczorek’s practice combines film and photography while moving between constructed documentary and documented fiction.
Human body, placed in situations that are extremely intimate and extremely political at the very same time, is a recurrent subject in her works that examines economies of gender and commodification of queer; identity politics; and how these are employed by strategies of governmental power.
She is currently artist in residence at Le Fresnoy – Studio national des arts contemporains (2020-2022). She previously graduated from the National Film School in Lodz, Poland (Direction of Photography), and from the Strzeminski Art Academy in Lodz, where she studied painting and fine art printing.
