Karolina Anna Sobecka

Karolina Sobecka is an artist and researcher whose work is centered on the relationship between environmental concerns and science and technology development. Her current projects explore the histories of ecology and their legacies in the contemporary formulations of carbon governance. One of the questions driving Karolina’s research is how artistic methods can be used outside of the art context towards socially-just ends such as repair of the environmental degradation of the planet. Through her projects, Karolina participates in and instigates interdisciplinary collaborations, often in the settings of science and policy. Karolina’s artwork has been shown internationally, and has received numerous awards, including from Creative Capital, New York Foundation for the Arts, Princess Grace Foundation, Eyebeam, Rhizome, and Vida Art and Artificial Life Awards.
