Lecturer, Music Business *
Lukasz Polowczyk is a Berlin-based sound artist, poet and educator.
His artistic practice is based around the protocols of translating the poetic intentionality of an idea across a variety of expressions and media. In his world a poem can be expressed as a sound-art piece, a spoken word composition backed by an experimental jazz ensemble, a site-specific audio-visual installation, a book or a series of grainy, abstract photos. Steven Barker (Wire Magazine) called him “an artist who specialises in the most candid forms of gritty self exploration.” In a recent profile piece, Electronic Sound introduced his album (Noise in the Key of Life) as “provocative and meditative, blurring the line between art and life.”
Over the last three years, the artist’s work has been regularly featured in the Wire Magazine, played on BBC3 Late Junction, Lefto’s Kiosk Radio show as well as a variety of BBC6 shows hosted by Mary Anne Hobbs.
