The work of Bianca Poláková (2000, Bratislava, Slovakia) is situated on the borderline between the visual and the performative. She develops installation and performance art with a strong focus on sensory experience, storytelling, ecofeminism, and immersive narratives that investigate how mythological and folkloric motifs can re-enchant contemporary relationships with the natural world. Through sensory materials, symbolic gestures, and participatory elements, she creates poetic situations that invite audiences to reconsider the boundaries between human and more-than-human bodies. She also creates larger environments exploring imaginative futures, often using the visitor as a co-actor.

Her projects draw on ancestral knowledge, ecological processes, and speculative imagination, positioning art as a ritual space for transformation and reconnection. Working with organic matter, ephemeral media, and performative actions, she examines themes of memory, disappearance, and ecological empathy, proposing new ways of perceiving and inhabiting the world.

Alongside her artistic practice, she engages in theoretical research on ecological performance and contemporary myth-making. Her work has been presented in exhibitions and interdisciplinary contexts across Italy, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, and the United States, and she continues to develop projects that bridge artistic practice, research, and environmental thought. She currently lives and works in Bratislava (Slovakia) at her studio in the independent cultural center Nová Cvernovka.
