Oskar Zięta Interferences & Illustrations

Museum of the Theater Henryk Tomaszewski

Wrocław, Poland

Spaces of parallel experiences

We invite you to encounter the interdisciplinary world of Oskar Zięta, marking the 15th anniversary of his creative practice in Wrocław.

In collaboration with the City of Wrocław and the Wrocław City Museum, Oskar Zięta will celebrate 15 years of his artistic practice with two parallel exhibitions: the kinetic show Interferences of form, sound, and metal, at the Henryk Tomaszewski Theatre Museum, and an unconventional curatorial concept titled Zieta Illustrated, hosted at the Wrocław Town Hall.

Selected works were previewed in the storefronts of Renoma department store on Świdnicka Street in Wrocław, where a rotating display offered glimpses of the illustrated interpretations. The full-scale premiere of the exhibition was hosted by the Institute of Industrial Design in Warsaw. 

Illustrated interpretations of metal

Zieta Illustrated is a testament to the power of interdisciplinarity in art and a tribute to Polish illustrators. In early 2023, Oskar Zięta invited artists from across Poland to interpret his metal objects through their illustrative lens.

Lines, colors, emotions, and places

Conceived as a traveling project, Zieta Illustrated has already visited Lumas Gallery in Toronto, the Fuzja zone during Łódź Design Festival, multiple editions of the Warsaw Home fair, and most recently joined the Targi Rzeczy Ładnych (Fair of Fine Things). Now, the project returns to Wrocław in its full form, where a collection of illustrations will be presented alongside the actual objects, inviting visitors at the Town Hall on a journey through lines, colors, and emotions.

New metal experiencing

Simultaneously, the Interferences kinetic exhibition will take place at the Theatre Museum, transforming the space into a laboratory of metal, sound, and form. Zięta will present a dedicated installation that guides visitors through parallel worlds, expressed in metal. Steel objects deformed using his innovative FiDU technology will become reflections of sound, its interpretation, and tools for its creation. 

About form, sound, and metal

Exhibition promises an entirely new encounter with metal—an immersive journey into the depths of materiality. Zięta’s Interferences lead nowhere specific; they have no final destination. This is an exhibition about process: the transformation of metal into sculpture, wave into shape, sound into space, and deformation into form.

Testimony of steel

Both events mark the 15th anniversary of Oskar Zięta’s creative journey. The year 2025 also marks the 20th anniversary of his first technological manifesto—the now-iconic PLOPP stool (Polish Air-Pumped Folk Object). At the heart of Zięta’s interdisciplinary work lies his proprietary technology of free deformation with internal pressure—FiDU. This revolutionary approach to stabilizing metal allows Zięta the artist to sculpt with air, while Zięta the architect and engineer creates stable, ultralight, and durable steel structures. 

The sum of interdisciplinarity

Each of Osrak Zięta’s works is a fusion of bionics, engineering, technology, and art. Each object is unique, bearing characteristic edge deformations—organic responses of the material to internal pressure. Every piece is a manifesto born from a deep fascination with material and an unrelenting passion for creation.

The meeting place

Wrocław holds a special place in Oskar Zięta’s story. It is home to his experimental, production, and artistic hub—Zieta Studio. It is also the city of his major sculptural works: Nawa, Koniczyna, and Hempel. In the summer of 2025, Wrocław becomes the meeting place with his interdisciplinary works.

We invite you into the metal world of Oskar Zięta—in Wrocław.
