Zuzanna Dyrda brings a variety of imaging techniques together to illuminate the conceptual possibilities of printmaking. She explores the limits of graphic matrices and print, pushing transformations through the use of unconventional substrates and techniques that combine classical printmaking with modern installation, performance and body art interpretations.
