ABOUT THE ARTIST

ALEKSANDRA KOWALCZYK

Aleksandra Kowalczyk ia a Polish artist based in Cork who graduated in Contemporary Applied Art from Crawford College of Art and Design (MTU) in 2021. She is now based in @benchspacecork

Using glass, metal and card, her work, based on the concept of fractal geometry, focuses on the order in complex geometric patterns, looking at the movement, rhythm and harmony within each structure and pattern.

Every organic structure is made out of simple units called fractals, which are then multiplied, in various sizes, to create the larger body. This concept calls into question Chaos Theory - it brings order to elements of nature that we previously considered irregular or variable, in effect, chaotic.
