My new work focuses on photographs of myself, dancing. Producing this series involved labour-intensive repetition of the body movement and wearing layers of colourful compositions. This kind of repetitive and physical effort required to create a photograph is a form of contemplation itself and it helps to increase the awareness of my body and mind.
Aldona Kmieć is a Polish-born Australian photographic artist based in Melbourne. Growing up on a farm, she developed a deep connection to the land and the stories it holds. This connection has profoundly influenced her art practice dedicated to photography. Showcasing migrant narratives built upon personal stories, her work reflects the complexities of identity, memory, and displacement.
