Persons Projects is proud to present Zofia Kulik’s solo exhibition Written in Her Own Hand, which traces the various stages of her artistic emancipation as she discovers her own voice as an independent female artist. The exhibition also serves as the initial platform for her first monographic book, published by Thames & Hudson, which comprehensively explores Kulik’s extraordinary body of work.
The Exhibition begins with her most memorable graduate work (1968–1971) and follows her transition into the collaborative duo KwieKulik (1971–1987), formed with her partner Przemysław Kwiek- Ending with a large black-and-white self-portrait depicting her as a queen. Together, these selected works provide a deeper understanding of how Kulik’s individual career developed into what it is today.
A central part of Kulik’s graduation diploma at the Warsaw Academy
of Fine Arts was a three-screen slide projection titled Instead of
Sculpture, composed of around 500 photographs (now part of the Tate
Modern Collection). For Kulik, sculpture is a process that unfolds over
time, without a defined beginning or end, and without a fixed narrative.
She explored the dynamic between sculpture and the viewer, analyzing
how perception becomes part of the sculptural experience.
