Angelika Puff

Born in Silesia, currently living and creating in Amsterdam. They work with painting, performance, and site-specific art. Their practice explores themes of identity, rooted in place of origin, relationships with nature, ritual and queerness as a strategy of resistance against normative structures. They draw on symbols tied to rural experience, such as the motif of the beet, which becomes a vessel for trauma and memory. Their works often follow the logic of dreams, where the subconscious, fear and desire merge with the past, transforming it into a personal mythology.
