Martyna Marciniak is a Polish, Berlin-based artist and researcher working at the intersection of sculpture, 3D art, animation, and film
Her interdisciplinary multi-media projects harness spatial storytelling, speculative fictions, and 3D reconstruction to interrogate how design and technology mirror and shape ideologies and social biases.
After completing her architectural education at the Bartlett School of Architecture in London, her spatial research has intersected with Human Rights Investigations. Collaborating with media outlets like CNN and BBC, as well as NGOs such as Forensic Architecture, Amnesty International, and Human Rights Watch, her work has shed light on critical issues of human rights abuses and structural injustices. In 2022, her co-founded research group, Border Emergency Collective, documented the experiences of migrants at the Polish-Belarusian border. She has exhibited at Ars Electronica, the Warsaw Biennale in Poland, Kinema Icon in Bucharest/Romania, Haus Gropius in Dessau and the deTour Festival in Hong Kong/China, among others.
In 2025, Marciniak was selected as the winner of the Collide Copenhagen residency.
