Collection: Błażej Marczak

THE ARTIST

Błażej Marczak is a documentary photographer currently focused on subjects in flux—urban landscapes that may soon change or disappear. He values the archival qualities of the medium, employing a unembellished approach that conveys the character of a place. His practice avoids stylistic devices that decontextualise or artificially evoke nostalgia and is informed by the subject matter itself, as well as by his wide-ranging interests and personal experiences.

Born in central Poland and raised during the socio-economic and political transformations of the 1980s and 1990s, Marczak moved to the UK in 2005, spending time in England before relocating to Scotland, where he graduated with a BA in Professional Photography from the University of Abertay Dundee in 2012. He has exhibited across the UK and internationally. In 2016, he moved to Canada, and since 2022, he has been represented by Wall Space Gallery in Ottawa. His work is held in private and institutional collections, including the City of Ottawa Art Collection, and has been published widely.
