Marta Ziółek is a choreographer, performer, and director. Her work lies at the intersection of dance, performance, visual arts, and educational practices. Her artistic practice explores the relationships between corporeality, pleasure, eroticism, affect, and visual culture.
She is interested in the ways in which the body contributes to the construction of social relationships, the negotiation of norms, and the emergence of new forms of community. Her projects frequently use choreography as a tool for empowerment, sensitivity, and critical reflection on the mechanisms of visibility. Marta Ziółek’s works have been presented in Poland as well as at international institutions dedicated to contemporary art. In recent years, she has developed projects exploring the connections between eroticism, pleasure, visibility, and the body’s capacity for action, examining their social, emotional, and political dimensions.
