Bodily by Sara Gackowska

Artist list

Sara Gackowska

We see sensitive and fine-crafted jewellery and objects made of stone, pearls, and latex, materials of striking symbolic and sensual presence. Stone carries the weight of permanence, the pearl embodies organic delicacy and intimacy, while latex holds the tension between protection and sensuality, between skin and its surface. 

Forms emerging from these materials refer to the human body, to its fragments, gestures, and traces. The works do not imitate the body, or narrate its stories, but rather evoke it through texture, softness, gloss, rhythm, and touch. The exhibition moves along the boundaries between the personal and the collective, matter and sensation, the object and the body that wears or remembers it- where presence is inscribed in matter.

Sara Gackowska is a Polish artist whose practice explores materiality through bold and experimental approaches. She holds a BA in Industrial Design from the Koszalin University of Technology and studied Jewellery Art at Saimaa University of Applied Sciences in Finland. She completed her MA 2013 in Jewellery at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk, graduating with distinction. Her work has been internationally recognised and awarded.
She is currently a lecturer at the Academy of Art in Szczecin, where she leads the Jewellery Design Studio at the Faculty of Design, and is also pursuing her PhD research.
