Coming soon to POSK Gallery in London is an exhibition bringing visual art and literature together. In Jarosław Solecki’s “Imponderabilia”, matter, image, movement, sound and the written word will come together. A group of writers will present their work through live readings and performances within Solecki’s installation. Literature will not simply comment on the visual art. It will become an active and equal part of the exhibition.
MEET THE ARTIST
Jarosław Solecki, known to many as Jarek, is a sculptor and visual artist who graduated from the Faculty of Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznań. He has lived and worked in the UK for more than a decade. He has received funding from Arts Council England and is a member of the Polish Society for Aesthetics. His practice combines traditional sculpture with conceptual art, performance and digital media. He works with stone, clay, wood and found objects, as well as 3D scanning, code, moving image and sound. His artistic and research-led projects have been presented in London, Amsterdam, San Francisco, Lisbon and Nairobi.
Solecki developed the artistic concept of the “dystopia of imitation”. In his work, imperfections are not treated as errors but as opportunities for new and independent forms to emerge. By moving between physical objects, digital representations, code and audience interaction, he takes sculpture beyond the traditional object and into installation, video and interactive 3D environments. He is also the founder of Blue Point Art Gallery, a platform supporting international collaboration and the presentation of contemporary art in physical and virtual spaces.
In “Imponderabilia”, Solecki returns to physical materials. Wood, branches and found objects are brought together with video projections to create an installation shaped by the gallery, its audience and live contributions from invited writers.
“IMPONDERABILIA”
15–21 August 2026
POSK Gallery, , London
The exhibition forms the centrepiece of the inaugural “Literature in the Visual Field: Polish Words and Art in London”. From 16 to 19 August, the gallery will host evenings of poetry, prose and performance in dialogue with Solecki’s installation. This new initiative has been made possible with support from the Aid Foundation Trust, to whom the organisers extend their sincere thanks. A further highlight will be the launch of “They Live Far from Each Other” by Katarzyna Zechenter and Mohan Sodhi on 20 August, supported by the Cultural Institute London.
