Ada Karczmarczyk by Postmasters Gallery (New York, NY) at Moving Image Istanbul

Ada Karczmarczyk, born in 1985 post-Communist, heavily religious Poland, is a multimedia artist, performer, blogger and singer. In her work she connects three worlds which are often irreconcilable, mutually exclusive, and in perpetual conflict: popculture, spirituality, and art. Since 2012 the artist claims to have undergone a conversion towards spirituality and faith, and she has made it her mission to have Catholic religion updated to current cultural metrics, and to be unafraid of contemporary, unorthodox, semi-blasphemous aesthetics, and modes of delivery. Karczmarczyk sees old methods of distribution of religious tenets and universal values as ineffective, disconnected and boring, and so she aims to promote the mystical spiritual experiences as a positive and valuable alternative to psychedelic drugs.
