Alicja Tkaczyk’s artistic practice is, in itself, an ecological manifesto. An artist, educator and designer, she addresses the climate  catastrophe through work rooted in recycling, using discarded  materials as both her medium and her source of inspiration.  Committed to zero-waste design and trashion, she creates original  garments and textiles while striving to leave no waste behind. 

She completed an MA in Textile and Interior Styling with distinction at the Strzemiński Academy of Fine Arts Łódź, where she  also trained in Fashion Design. She currently teaches at Opole  University of Technology, alongside developing her artistic and  educational practice.

Her work has featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions, including at the Academic Design Centre and the Central Museum of Textiles in Łódź, Carbon Footprint Summit in  Kraków, Gdynia Design Days, and Fabryka Sztuk in Tczew. Her  collections have also been shown at Wrocław Fashion Week, OFF  FASHION in Kielce, the Freedom Parade in Łódź, and the WOW  Fashion Awards in Warsaw.

For Agata Koszulińska’s Uroboros: A Revue for Three Actresses at  Komuna Warszawa, Tkaczyk designed the costumes and objects  and cocreated the exhibition design. She also designed the set  and costumes for Victoria Myronyuk’s The Broken Heart Clinic,  presented at the Łódź of Many Cultures Festival.
