Martha Olech (1995 Haarlem) graduated in photography at de Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht in 2024. Her artistic practice focuses on how we as humans can heal and what we can learn from the more-than-human world. Her research draws from archival images and continues with the search for a dialogue between sculpture and alternative processes in printmaking and photography. Ancestral and contemporary forms are brought together, creating non-linear realities.
