Katarzyna Dreszer

Dr. hab. Katarzyna Dreszer, Professor at the University of Arts in Poznań, specializes in visual semiotics and digital art. Her work explores the intersection of augmented reality, poetry, and contemporary literature through interdisciplinary methodologies.

• Active in artistic research since at least 2017
• Develops nonverbal interpretations of Polish poets' works
• Integrates digital technologies like video and AR

Her research focuses on the interpenetration of image and language, examining how meanings are constructed through relational elements in space and time. She investigates the dynamics between line, form, and context, drawing on Derridean concepts of differentiation and deferral.

The LABYRINTHS OF MEANINGS installation series demonstrates her exploration of metaphorical world-building through layered visual structures. These works manipulate light, shadow, and form to create spaces perceivable only through augmented reality.

As workshop leader at UAP, she engages in experimental storytelling techniques that merge artistic practice with theoretical inquiry.
