Elizka Chojnacka (she/her/they/them) is a multidisciplinary artist from Poland, currently based in Berlin. She incorporates ephemeral practices into her
art, such as fermenting, cooking, cleaning, and collective daydreaming.
They re-started their painting journey through graffiti with her peers, using
this experience as an approach to further search on a soft scale.
Using wrinkled, reused or thin as muslin textiles carries intimate and speculative memories. Elizka frees her landscape from rigid frames into illusionary queer dream.
A graduate of Social Design at the University of Fine Arts in Vienna. Their practice grew on the moist ground of Spółdzielnia Krzak, collectively-run garden and art collective in Warsaw, Poland. Krzak’s collaborative projects focused on translating ethnobotanical knowledge into multi-sensorial experiences such as sculptures, sound installations and performative dinners. Since 2021 Eliza has been a part of the Floating University assosiation , where she has (co-) produced numerous festivals, workshops and activities around themes of care, maintenance and hospitality.
