How memory shapes identity, how symbols transcend time

Magdalena Kleszynska is an artist and art educator at the Magdalena Abakanowicz University of the Arts in Poznań, Poland. Her work invites reflection on how memory shapes identity and how symbols transcend time. Hair represents flow—not just of air, but of change and the collective unconscious. Across cultures, hair symbolizes identity and spirit, while air connects to the soul, thought, and enlightenment.
