I am delighted to invite you to discover the traveling exhibition project “Mail Art: At the Borders of Cultures,” in which I am participating.

As an artist, I had the honor of participating in this magnificent exhibition at the Birla Academy of Art and Culture in Kolkata, India, from April 7 to 12, 2026. The opening of “The Art of Convergence” took place in an exceptional atmosphere, in the presence of Ms. Elizabeth Lee, Director of the American Center; Mr. Qin Yong, Deputy Consul General of China; Mr. Mahesh Saharia, Honorary Consul of Indonesia; and Dr. G.S. Gaur, Deputy Director of Finance for BET at the Birla Academy of Art and Culture.
WELA, a French-Polish visual artist, is a sculptor, painter, and creator of numerous site-specific installations.
She is actively engaged in promoting contemporary art through curating exhibitions, teaching, writing critiques, and fostering artistic exchange with the public to advance art development.
This installation consists of 50 semi-transparent, hand-drawn tubes adorned with plant motifs that appear bathed in flames. Beyond its visual beauty, the work invites reflection on energy consumption and humanity’s impact on the planet’s balance.
Butterfly Dream reflects a longing for freedom and joie de vivre. For Wela, the suitcase becomes a vessel of dreams, symbolizing travel without constraints and inner imagination.
Composed of 500 translucent tubular elements, Multiplications transforms fluid drawings into a spatial light installation. Swaying with the wind, the work explores the poetic dialogue between art and nature, reality and fiction.

The Whisperers consists of 16 sensor-equipped columns that respond to visitors by diffusing natural sounds such as water, wind, and rain. The installation reflects humanity’s desire to reconnect with nature through artificial means, revealing a contemporary paradox.

Valizka is a playful variation on the word and title of the exhibition “Valizka, walizka, valise, …”. The exhibition is a captivating exploration of the humble but meaningful object the suitcase. Through a series of art installations, visitors are invited to delve into a world where the suitcase becomes the catalyst for personal expressions and collective stories. From the excitement of travel to forced displacement and nomadic life, each suitcase tells a unique story, offering a deeply moving look at our world in constant motion. The word, or rather the image, evokes a response from the personal to the universal, the historical, the political. The forced displacement of people drags their lives into suitcases. The suitcase, simply as an object, can remind us of the excitement and anticipation of journeys undertaken. A small cream suitcase with a gold trim and a red tartan lining does just that. In contrast, a pile of worn-out suitcases can evoke stories of disrupted lives and hopes for new beginnings. Each guest artist interprets this theme in their own way, creating a rich and diverse mosaic of perspectives on this symbol that speaks to everyone.
