Overview
- Artists Bogna Burska and Daniel Kotowski will represent Poland in the Giardini at the 61st Venice Biennale.
- Their work centers non-phonetic communication, using International Sign and a mixed hearing/Deaf ensemble called Choir in Motion.
- The artists base the exhibition on 'Deaf Gain', which treats deafness as culture and identity that enrich how people perceive and share ideas.
- Research into whale communication and underwater contexts shapes pieces about retrieving voices that exist beyond spoken speech.
- Production spans film, exhibition architecture, and visual identity teams as they finalize the pavilion with Zachęta’s support.
