Tamsen Wojtanowski is a Philadelphia-based artist whose work explores the intersection of photography, painting, printmaking, and installation. Blending abstraction and representation, their work is rooted in themes of love, gender & identity, motherhood, heartache, failure, anger, and beauty. Rather than treating photography as a tool for fixed representation, Wojtanowski embraces it as a space for emotional and conceptual exploration, where images evolve through layers of memory, touch, and transformation.
Beyond their studio practice, Wojtanowski is an educator with extensive experience teaching photography and design at institutions such as Tyler School of Art/Temple University, Kutztown University, Arcadia University, and Rowan University. They are also a long-time member of Pink Noise Projects, a collective project space supporting experimental artistic practices in Philadelphia.
Wojtanowski’s work has been exhibited widely in galleries, museums, and artist-run spaces across the U.S. and internationally. Their exhibitions include solo, group, and collaborative projects in institutions ranging from contemporary art centers to experimental project spaces, reflecting a commitment to both traditional and alternative modes of artistic presentation.
