Fusion of additive technology and 3D scanning| Agnieszka Mazurek Gallery Design, 9 Wolnica Str.Duration of exhibition: 10 – 29.10.2024 Finissage: 29.10.2024, 18:00 The exhibition accompanies the doctoral dissertation and presents the design process that was carried out during the research work. Its goal was to develop a new product in the form of a 3D scanner. Nowadays, we observe an extremely dynamic development of additive technology (commonly called 3D printing) and a rapidly progressing process of its interpenetration with a specific imaging formula, which is obtained thanks to 3D scanning. This interpenetration of new technologies creates further, broad possibilities that revolutionize our current methods of designing, producing, creating solutions, and even imagining these processes – this is how dynamic their development

(…) These pauses anchor us in the flow of time. (…) The more pauses in space, and therefore the more places we experience, the subjectively more time passes.”[1] Olga Tokarczuk The “Places” exhibition is my journey through time and space. The titular places are a kind of expanding diary in which, through images, we can come into contact with the local culture, beliefs and stories of the inhabitants I visited in the near or distant past.

The titular “beast of no burden” is a water buffalo (domestic ox), a draft animal that once dominated the rural landscapes of many Southeast Asian countries. The last few decades have brought dynamic agricultural mechanization, which in turn has wiped out these animals from the rural landscape. The axis of the project is a hand-made floor consisting of ceramic tiles decorated with water buffalo hoof prints. In a region where ceramics are an important element of interior design, the “A beast of

Members of the Poznan Minilabists group used it not only for this purpose, immortalizing reality, objects, people and events preceding Poland’s accession to the European Union on miniature films. The resulting archive of nearly 2,000 color snapshots is a unique collection of images of the symbolic end of the political transformation, in which the post-communist reality of the old regime merges with the sad consumerism of the crisis years at the beginning of the new century. The features of the Polaroids used by Minilabists, such as fast food impatience,

Witch Hunt.

Unlike memorials, such as museums, monuments or war cemeteries, non-memorials can be forgotten, neglected or even unknown to the general public. Their essence is that they store memory in an informal way and often require some effort on the part of people to find and understand their meaning. The exhibition Witch Hunt.

Hjörleifur Halldórsson | Diploma exhibition IMPERMANENCE Opening: June, 12 at 18:00Duration of exhibition: June, 12-15, 12:00 – 19:00 Impermanence Everything will eventually fade away. Nothing is permanent. Our lives, society, emotions and the world are all temporary. In this exhibition I try to capture the concept of transience as a positive and creative force. Acceptance of transience serves as a gateway to minimizing suffering. This belief brings the peace of mind to accept the things that cannot be changed and the courage to change the things that can be changed, as well as the wisdom to distinguish between the two. What comes next will reveal itself in due time. My paintings are a form of narration of what usually becomes

Family in the folds of reality | Zofia SłupczyńskaGallery Nowa Scena UAP, 28 Marcinkowskiego Ave.Duration of exhibition: 4-9.06.2024 Zofia Słupczyńska’s master’s degree deals with the topic of family in the modern world, which is entangled in certain folds imposed by reality. The issue is presented through the use of draperies and people interacting or not interacting with them. The fabric takes on the role of a symbol of the relationship between people who pull it, touch it, or leave it without any interference. The works encourage reflection on the existing situation and reality, which does not always have to be as we think. Family has always been an important aspect in my life.
