JOANNA GROCHOWSKA: TRANSHUMANISM
The Untitled Space 
Online Exhibition on Artsy and Kunstmatrix
July 30 – October 31, 2025

TRANSHUMANISM, a solo online exhibition by contemporary artist Joanna Grochowska, will be on view with The Untitled Space from July 30 through October 31, 2025, via the digital platforms Artsy and Kunstmatrix. This marks Grochowska’s first solo show with the gallery and forms part of her larger conceptual initiative, Opening the Future, first introduced in Munich in 2021.

Grochowska’s practice fuses photography, digital manipulation, and performance with speculative theory, forging an immersive visual exploration of posthuman identity. In TRANSHUMANISM, she confronts the transformation of the human body amid accelerating technological innovation. With striking imagery rooted in surreal symbolism and transhuman figuration, the exhibition probes the shifting boundaries of gender, selfhood, and embodiment. Drawing inspiration from thinkers such as Klaus Schwab, Ray Kurzweil, and Elon Musk, Grochowska utilizes the digital medium to explore the aesthetic and ethical implications of biotechnological enhancement.

At the core of TRANSHUMANISM is the concept of morphological freedom—the right to modify one’s body and mind. This theme emerges not only as a theoretical framework but as a visual provocation. Her figures appear spliced, augmented, and reengineered, presented as hybrid entities that challenge biological determinism and conventional beauty standards. The digital surface becomes a site of rebellion, signaling a future where the boundaries of the body are elastic, unstable, and politically charged.

Grochowska positions her work in dialogue with Jeffrey Deitch’s seminal Post Human exhibition (1992), extending its legacy into today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape. Like Deitch’s show, TRANSHUMANISM blurs the lines between science fiction and critical inquiry, proposing new modes of being and becoming in a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, and cybernetics.

“My work represents the creation of a new art movement: transhumanist art. I reimagine the body as an unnatural, augmented, and evolving entity. My practice challenges definitions of what it means to be human, and questions how technology is reshaping paradigms of gender, identity, and ethics.”

– Joanna Grochowska

The exhibition compels viewers to ask: What does it mean to be human in an era of intelligent machines and synthetic bodies? And how might art help us navigate the existential dilemmas of our own evolution?

Artist Bio:
Joanna Grochowska is a contemporary artist whose practice confronts the rapidly evolving boundaries of identity, body politics, and technology. At the heart of her work lies a commitment to redefining what it means to be human in the face of accelerating advancements in artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and cybernetics. Rooted in the philosophy of transhumanism, Grochowska’s art explores the concept of morphological freedom–the right to modify one’s body and mind–as a radical act of self-determination and resistance to imposed norms. Grochowska holds an MFA from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and is an alumna of the Jewish Open University of the Shalom Foundation, as well as a member of Humanity+, the international transhumanist organization. Her art not only explores speculative futures but also champions bodily sovereignty, feminist empowerment, and the liberation of identity beyond biological constraints.

She has participated in several group shows presented by The Untitled Space, including “The INNOVATE Exhibit” (2022) and “UPRISE 2025: The Art Of Resistance” (2025). This is her first solo show with the gallery.

“My work represents the creation of a new art movement: transhumanist art. The central question I address is taken from Klaus Schwab: What future do we want? What must we do to get there? Through delving into speculative futures shaped by human enhancement technologies, I reimagine the body as an unnatural, augmented, and evolving entity. My practice challenges definitions of what it means to be human, and questions how technology is reshaping paradigms of gender, identity, and ethics. Building on the discourse introduced by Jeffrey Deitch’s Post Human series (1992), as well as being informed by the theories of Elon Musk, Ray Kurzweil, and other visionaries shaping the future of human evolution, my work is both an affirmation of transhumanist philosophy and an aesthetic exploration of future realities.” – Joanna Grochowska
