Performance synopsis

“LUXA” is a performance by Agata Życzkowska about luxury in social, physical, and philosophical contexts. It begins with luxury items for women but also explores intangible values like freedom, knowledge, and authenticity. Luxury can be jade, cocoa, or the ability to be oneself. Created with a 2023 City of Warsaw art grant, the piece was selected for the Polish Dance Platform 2024.
