LA DREAMS

Marcelina Amelia (b. 1989) is a multidisciplinary artist born in Częstochowa, Poland, and based in Brighton, UK. Her practice spans painting, print, textile, photography, installation, video, and performance. Drawing from her Polish heritage, Marcelina explores themes of migration, motherhood, mental health, feminism, spirituality, personal rituals, dreams, and the complexities of the human experience. Her work blends folklore with contemporary narratives, childhood memories with emotional rawness, and sacred symbols with a deep sensitivity to the cycles of life and nature.

Her visual language plays with the tension between desire and innocence, creating a poetic unease that invites emotional reflection. At the heart of her practice lies a fascination with memory both personal and collective and the transformative power of storytelling. Whether through performances or intimate artworks, she creates space for shared vulnerability, empathy, and healing.
