Marzena Abrahamik
I am an American artist, driven by photography’s ability to change our visual sensibility. I am visually inspired by personal histories, attachments to unachievable and necessary for survival fantasies, to further investigate communal formations and transformations. I work through photographic series where images are anchored in historical and autobiographical events. My cultural heritage informs me as an artist and educator, and my biography is a motivating resource that provides insight and empathy to otherwise abstracted issues. I was born in Poland, grew up in Greece and for the past ten years, I have been working as a professional artist and educator in Chicago, IL.
