The scene captures a moment of exchange — an offering of brushes, a gesture of trust and transformation. What is passed on is encouragement to step into the unknown.

BIO

Dorota Mytych is a multidisciplinary artist working across painting, drawing, sculpture, video, installation, and performance. Her practice examines political, social, and personal structures—how they form, fracture, and dissolve—exposing their fragility and impermanence. She holds a Diploma of Fine Arts from the Istituto Lorenzo de’ Medici (Florence) and an Honours Degree in Painting from the Accademia di Belle Arti, Florence. She is the recipient of a Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant and fellowships/residencies at the Camargo Foundation, the Bogliasco Foundation, and MacDowell. Selected exhibitions include At the Back of the Mind, MOCAK Museum of Contemporary Art in Kraków (2025); Utracone / Looted, Galeria Podbrzezie, Kraków (2023); Bez Rutyny / Un-rehearsed, Ethnographic Museum in Kraków (2020); Makeshift Revolutions, Nellie Castan Gallery, Melbourne (2012); and Gift of Time, Roswell Museum (2010). Her work is held in major collections including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney, and Artbank, as well as in public and private collections across Europe, Australia, and the United States.
