ABOUT
Klaudia Wojciech is a Polish-born artist currently based in Bristol, UK. With a deep passion for art nurtured since childhood, Klaudia Wojciech has a diverse educational background, including a Bachelor’s degree in Art Education with a focus on Sculpture from the University of Silesia in Cieszyn, Poland. She also holds the title of Conservation Technician, specializing in stucco work and architectural element restoration, from the Art High School in Nowy WiÅ›nicz. Her experience includes professional practice at the Pszczyna Castle Museum, where she worked on gilding and stucco restoration, as well as attending live drawing workshops in Bristol led by Neil Roberts.
Primarily working in expressive realism, Klaudia Wojciech specializes in oil painting but also uses acrylics, watercolors, pencil, charcoal, and, most recently, pyrography. Her art often focuses on portraits and figures, with an emphasis on eyes that captivate and follow the viewer. While her compositions frequently feature dark, minimalist backgrounds to enhance the subject's presence, her use of bold primary colors and white creates striking contrasts and emotional depth.
Nature, light, mythology, and literature serve as her primary inspirations, alongside a passion for exploring human expression and storytelling. In addition to her personal practice, Klaudia Wojciech is actively involved in the local art community, tutoring together with Jeff Martin at Spectrum 65 Art Group in Nailsea and Clevedon Art Club, while also teaching private art lessons, mainly to children.
Her work has been exhibited internationally, including at the 2023 Art Fair in Carrousel du Louvre, Paris, as well as in various local exhibitions in Bristol, Nailsea, and Clevedon. In 2024, she participated in the International Cultural Festival in Bristol and was a guest at the Pitch & Showcase Graduation Event organized by UP Collective. Klaudia Wojciech collaborates with Polodango Gallery in Clevedon and occasionally exhibits as a guest at Studio 3 in Clevedon Craft Centre. Known for her meticulous attention to detail and a penchant for nighttime creativity, Klaudia Wojciech thrives in a serene workspace, often accompanied by her sleeping cat. Despite her expressive and spontaneous artistic style, she values order and precision in her artistic process.
