An artist based in Poland
Alexandra Stelmashonok
A calligrapher-storyteller, artist and author, Alex is a creative powerhouse. She has been participating in art exhibitions since 2008. In 2009-2010 she had a personal exhibition of her graphic works in Minsk. It has also been exhibited in several cities in Poland. In 2017, she had her first personal calligraphic exhibition. Since 2016 Alex has been teaching calligraphy and promoting it in every possible manner: showing its variety, exploring and pushing its limits, and giving educational lectures on this topic on various platforms including TEDx and international art festivals. To popularize calligraphy, she organised the creation of group art objects. The largest projects she has conducted were huge interactive zones at the National Belarusian Art Museum during the Night of Museums and painting an art object in the city center, with over 30 calligraphers involved. Alex now lives in Poland.
