Kata Kwiatkowska is a Berlin-based multidisciplinary artist and bodywork practitioner from Poland, with a background in humanistic design.
Kata got her BA in fashion design at the School of Form in Poznań, mentored by Liedewij Edelkoort and completed the Dance Intensive program at Tanzfabrik Berlin in 2021.
She’s active as a dancer and performer in the local Berlin art scene and abroad, often engaging in a live dialogue between sound and movement in galleries, site specific interruptions and living room concerts, collaborating with music artists across various genres. Her dance works have been featured at Uferstudios Berlin (reinkommen, ada studio 2025), the Internationales Solo Tanztheater Festival (2023), Lange Nacht des Tanzes in Bleiburg (2023), SoloDuo Festival in Köln (2022) and others. She also collaborates with the Berlin-based Otucha Collective, where they focus on phenomena of the human voice, its healing & empowering qualities, rooted in rural Eastern European vocal traditions, deep listening and somatic practices.
Alongside her dance path Kata has worked in costume for dance theatre since 2017 at places such as Sadler’s Wells Theatre in London, touring with Rambert and Matthew Bourne’s New Adventures and with companies such as Sasha Waltz & Guests in Berlin.
In 2026 she worked as Head of Wardrobe on tour for Kontakhof - Echoes of 78’ - by Pina Bausch and Meryl Tankard (produced by Sadler’s Wells, Pina Bausch Foundation and Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch).
Kata is also self-taught photographer working across music, performance and the visual arts, balancing commissioned projects with a growing body of personal and authorial work. Her exhibitions have been featured at Berlin Art Week (2024), Dzialdov Gallery in Berlin (2021) and at Lange Nacht des Tanzes Festival in Bleiburg, Austria (2022) and others.
As someone deeply dedicated to body based practices and she also became a bodywork practitioner, completing a 3-year professional training in Grinberg Method in 2025. She is actively teaching reclaiming the power of the body through bodywork, art, voice and movement practices in 1:1 and group settings.
In all her artistic career paths as well as in life itself there is a clear mission to give space to body attention, collective presence and to embrace the art of heartbreak and failure as growth and as something we unspokenly commonly share.
