Kinga Jaczewska Antwerp-based artist | Originally from Warsaw, PL
Kinga Jaczewska is a choreographer, dancer, and artist whose work explores the politics of visibility—what is seen, overlooked, or escapes attention, and why. With her work she often draws focus to presences and subjects that were placed at the periphery or are overlooked.
Jaczewska’s work unfolds through long-term research clusters which defined by specific research questions, experiment with various mediums and methods. While it takes many forms such as black box dance performances, photography, works on paper or text, her work remains rooted in a choreographic approach to movement - always returning to the body as a site of inquiry, relation, reflection, and a vessel for emotional depth and lived experience.
In recent years, architecture has become a significant influence - its forms, spatial logic, and capacity to hold personal and collective memory inform Jaczewska’s choreographic thinking. Through her recent projects she got intrigued by the thought of dance as choreographic objects - a concept she will continue to explore in her upcoming research project called figures.
Jaczewska studied in London Contemporary Dance School (UK) , Northern School of Contemporary dance (UK) and Performing and Research and Training Studios, P.A.R.T.S. (Research Cycle) in Brussels (BE). In 2022, Jaczewska received the PrixFintroPrijs, a Belgian award supporting emerging artists.
