Polish artist Justyna Kisielewicz shares her unique perspective, which imagines the West through the lens of Polish TV and the Hollywood movies of her youth. Her work considers Western culture, consumption, and capitalism, as well as other issues that affect the state of the world. Glamour and humor find a place in her flirtatious and cheeky works that ask us to question our values and our place on the world stage. Justyna Kisielewicz currently resides in California.
