bio

Ania Brzeski (b.1994, London) is a visual artist and designer based in New York, NY. Her practice explores how language shapes personal identity. Working in painting, drawing and textiles, she examines how relational ties emerge through, and are confined within, our conceptions of language. 

Her work plays with the visual elements of writing to create coded, encrypted and asemic texts expressing the potentiality of meaning. A grid structure is recurrent in her work, representing a matrix for communication; each unit only exists in relation to its neighbours.

For the past seven years, Brzeski has run the design studio IF A THEN B, creating handmade textiles and ceramics that celebrate inherited craft traditions. Since moving into a fine art practice in 2023, she has presented two solo exhibitions at Park Life Gallery and Norden Living Gallery, multiple group shows, and exhibited at FOG Art+Design Fair and SFMOMA Makers Fair. Her work has been featured in London Craft Week, Monocle magazine, and at leading design stores and restaurants across the UK and California.
