Joanna Burejza

Joanna Burejza is a Polish photography-based artist living and working in London. 

My work concerns the meeting point between private and collective memory. I work with 'found' photographic material drawn from archives and personal collections; historical visual artefacts such as discarded snapshots, un-captioned press glossies, or anonymous studio portraits. I use these existing images to create fictional narratives, imaginative re-creations of the lost lives glimpsed in forgotten and unconsidered photos.
