JANINA MYRONOVA

Janina Myronova is born in 1987 in Donieck, Ukraine and lives and works in Wroclaw, Poland. She creates narrative through figurative forms and composed backdrops. Utilizing a specific and distorted representation of the body, each composition shows a different personality and personal story to collectively reference a graphic novel and arcing story. Imparting her own emotion through linework, Myronova’s works are strategically charged with color to saturate and amplify their individual stories.

She received her MFA from the Department of Ceramic Art at Lviv National Academy of Fine Arts (Lviv, Ukraine) in 2012, an MFA from the Department of Ceramics and Glass at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts and Design (Wroclaw, Poland) in 2013, and her PhD from the same department in 2019. Continually developing her practice, Myronowa has participated in numerous residencies, including at the New Taipei Yingge Ceramics Museum (Taiwan), Clayarch Gimhae Museum (South Korea), Lefebvre and Fils (Paris, France), the Polish Sculpture Centre (Oronsko, Poland), International Ceramic Research Center Guldagergaard (Denmark), International Ceramic Studio (Kecskemet, Hungary), and the Northern Clay Center (USA). Janina has exhibited internationally, with recent solo shows including Folktales & Fanfare at Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art, Great Falls, Montana, and Wonder Land at Lucy Lacoste Gallery, USA. Her work has also been featured in group exhibitions such as the Fourth Hong Juang Zi Qi International Ceramic Week, at Yixing Museum, China.
