Jan Baszak (he/him) born in 1994 in Szczecin. Jan Baszak is a visual artist working between Szczecin, Warsaw, and Berlin. His interdisciplinary practice spans sculpture, installation, stage design, textile art, and research-based work.

Baszak’s art explores the intersection of intimacy and melancholy. He works with posthuman and animal-derived materials, along with reclaimed textiles, drawing on queer theory, posthumanism, post-nature, and the vibrancy of matter.

His practice investigates the complex relationships between human and non-human beings, engaging with the mysticism of interspecies gaze exchange. He envisions models of community grounded in a kind of Halloween egalitarianism—spaces that embrace non-binary, non-linear forms of thinking.

Through layered sculptural installations, Baszak creates immersive worlds that revolve around fantasy, the affirmation of otherness, and the aesthetics of the abject.

Jan Baszak is represented by the WHOISPOLA Gallery.
