Joanna Wojewoda (she/her) is a Canadian-Polish visual artist based in Toronto, working primarily in photography.
She received classical training in photography at Sheridan College and her work draws on her broader lived and professional experience. Her life experiences have also led her to have a strong interest in mental health and psychology, its linkage to artistic practice, and how both subjects can work together to lead to positive outcomes. Joanna recognizes that our world is divided and hurting, from the level of the individual out to entire societies, and the need for reconciliation and healing is more important than ever. Within this context, Joanna’s work investigates how she can foster cross-sectoral healing, leveraging collaboration and innovation in her artistic practice to accomplish this. Her work uses colour, tone, composition and exploration of her subject matter to reach and impact her audience.
