Isa Juchniewicz, MA

Associate Lecturer

Isa is a Polish visual artist and educator based in Prague, exploring the intersection of new media, video, and performance. Her work examines non-traditional ways of belonging and creates formats where the body and senses are extended and positively confused. Working primarily in collaboration, she has presented projects at national and international festivals and institutions, including Brno Art Week, Prague Quadrennial, Vienna Shorts, Museo Universitario del Chopo, and Miami Art Society, among others. As an active member of the academic community at Prague City University, she currently researches the role of play in relation to technology.
