Tusia Dąbrowska
CCAM MIX Guest Art Director (2025–2026)
Tusia Dąbrowska makes eco-social performances, experimental films and digital projects.
Trained in Tactical Media and embracing the Slow Media methodologies, Tusia is particularly interested in mediated liveness and co-creation. Her performance My Imaginary Friends explores the socio-political potential of reimagining the Ashkenaz as a model of cohabitation and received support from Asylum Arts (2021) and LABA NYC (2023). Her algorithmic video art Dystopiany offers a story of a migrant fleeing to the megapolis, only to realize that it is collapsing as the world is transforming in regeneration of the geo- and the genome (BRIC residency, Brooklyn). For her first documentary short, I No Longer Believe We Are Good People, Tusia traveled to the eastern border of Poland to meet local women aid volunteers and migrants crossing through an old-growth forest to enter into the E.U., with support from the Queens Arts Fund, Puffin Foundation, and CUNY’s Adjuncts’ Incubator. She was the artist in residence at Signal Culture, BRICworkspace, Konvent Residency, and Wave Hill.
Tusia co-founded temp.files, a women and non-binary artist video publishing cooperative, online publication, streaming site, and remote residency (BAC grant). She teaches courses in media production and video editing at NYU and QC/CUNY.
