The "Simulacra" (2026) series of works by Agnieszka Semaniszyn-Konat offers a critical reconfiguration of the theme of the exhibition where it was presented: "Soda Spring". The series juxtaposes the promise of lightness, effervescent refreshment, and social relaxation with the relentless mechanics of Jean Baudrillard’s fourth stage of the image. Created using a mixed-media technique, incorporating acrylic, pigment, and resin. The works measure 20 × 20 cm. This intimate, modular format mimics the dimensions of interface tiles and social media layouts, where the experience of art is reduced to a superficial, safe swipe. The series was showcased at the "Soda Spring" exhibition, part of the Wrocław Painting Biennale. The exhibition and the Biennale were organized by the E. Geppert Academy of Art and Design in Wrocław. The exhibition took place at the "Sztuka na miejscu" gallery in Wrocław from May 12 to June 7, 2026, and was curated by Anna Maria Kramm and Sylwia Mucha. The event received funding from the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, the City of Wrocław, and the Wrocław Academic Center.

Agnieszka Semaniszyn-Konat’s solo exhibition of paintings and drawings, titled "Warp | Incipit," marks the launch of her doctoral research process. The title "Warp" refers to the concept of the warp, the threads forming the structural skeleton of a textile and, simultaneously, the foundational basis of the research process. The English term also carries a secondary meaning: distortion, warping, and a glitch structural rupture or flaw, elements that foreshadow the research problems and formal operations to be developed in the doctoral thesis. "Incipit" understood as a beginning, the opening words of a literary text, or the initial bars of a musical score, signals the inauguration of a rigorous cognitive process. The exhibition presented twenty paintings and drawings created between 2024 and 2026. The works, ranging in size from 20x20 cm to 150x100 cm, were executed using various techniques: oil on canvas, mixed media, proprietary techniques, and colored pencil on paper. The exhibition was held at the Galeria Tkacka at Jatki in Wrocław from July 3 to August 17, 2026. It was organized through the collaboration of the Gliwice-Zabrze and Wrocław Districts of the Association of Polish Visual Artists and supported by the Scientific Research Development Fund of SWPS University.

Filip Zagórski designed the visual identity for Kaliński Invest, a company operating in the investment and real estate sectors. The scope of work included developing the identity concept, a new logo and symbol, and a comprehensive visual system defining the rules for their application in brand communications. The project also encompassed the creation of a color palette, typographic guidelines, a modular grid-based layout system, a graphic motif, and selected identity applications, including for digital channels and social media. The goal was to establish a cohesive visual language that blends the brand’s experience and stability with its modern investment profile and openness to innovation. A key aspect of the concept was translating brand values into visual communication elements. The resulting system organizes the brand’s personal, investment, and development-related communications, laying the groundwork for future growth and consistent interaction with the business environment. Kaliński Invest is a Polish limited liability company registered in Warsaw in April 2022.
