What if the city were a living organism? What if its cracks, walls, and neglected spaces were not signs of decay, but places where new forms of life could emerge?

The City Has Organs is a site-specific installation consisting of ceramic objects inspired by biomimicry and the adaptive structures of living organisms. Resembling fragments of unknown anatomy, organic growths, or protective mechanisms, the sculptures inhabit the overlooked spaces of urban architecture — cracks in pavements, gaps between buildings, and the edges of existing infrastructure. The project approaches the city not as a static architectural structure, but as a constantly transforming organism, capable of developing its own responses to environmental pressure, damage, and change. The ceramic forms appear to grow out of the built environment, blurring the boundaries between the artificial and the biological, construction and evolution, decay and regeneration. Rather than dominating public space, the objects become part of its existing fabric. Their discovery requires attention, curiosity, and a willingness to look beyond the obvious. The work invites us to reconsider our relationship with the urban environment and imagine a city that does not merely contain life, but is itself alive.

The City Has Organs was also presented at Adrianna Gajdziszewska’s solo exhibition Please Wait While I Disappear at Willa Januszów in Rzeszów (2025), before being shown as an urban intervention around Karl-Marx-Platz in Berlin as part of the international art festival 48 Stunden Neukölln (2026).
