Urszula Widzgowska is a Polish visual artist who lives and works in Germany. Her practice moves between painting, textile art, and Pop Art-inspired symbolic worlds. She combines abstraction with cultural motifs and reflects on themes such as identity, memory, and the dialogue between Poland and Germany.
Widzgowska studied painting in Poland, where she learned traditional techniques as well as printmaking. Today she works with acrylic paints and hand-felted wool, which she models like paint. Her textile paintings belong to contemporary fiber art and are characterized by luminous areas, relief-like surfaces, and a narrative visual language.
The artist integrates elements of Polish culture, folk art, childhood symbols and pop culture references – including the figure of Stańczyk – to create vibrant works that enrich both private and public spaces.
