Olesia Kvitka is a multimedia artist, curator and researcher. She works across digital media, transmedia storytelling and multimedia design. Her practice explores the intersection of technology, ritual, collective memory and nature.
Kvitka has been developing an artistic trajectory rooted in multimedia and generative art. Her projects include Artificial Lullaby (2022/23), Der Augenblick (2023), Temporarily Life (2023), Elegy (2022/23), Who am I? (2023), Amapola (2024), and Vivid Void: More than Human (2025). These works experiment with hybrid media, AI-generated text-to-video and sound, poetry, AR, and interactive installations, addressing themes such as the healing aspects of artistic practice, collective intelligence, and the connections between biological systems, neural networks, cosmos and algorithms.
She has also worked extensively in documentary formats. Kvitka directed and co-wrote a documentary film series for the art collection of Raiffeisen Landesbank OÖ (2023/24). Her works have been presented internationally, including Language Machine (Wrong Biennale, Linz/online), AI+ Artificial Intelligence and Art (Splace Gallery, Linz), Ciclos (Artly Mix Cultural Space, São Paulo), UN/FAMILIAR (UK), Expressions of Love (London), O Moon Festival Internacional de Videopoesia (Lisbon), Art Forest – The Roots Tree-Planting Festival (Cyprus), and Latitudes – Festival Internacional de Performance Art (Bolivia).
Her practice has been supported by several residencies and institutional grants. In 2024 she received a working grant from the Austrian Federal Ministry of Arts, Culture, Civil Service and Sport (BMKÖS) for Vienna ArtScape, an AR-based project developed in collaboration with Artivive. The work transformed Vienna’s street art and graffiti into an interactive AR walk, overlaying animations and generative layers in urban space.
In 2024 she was supported by the Goethe-Institut to participate in a residency at MolinoLab (Spain), where she and nine international artists, including musicians and performers, explored co-creation with non-human entities using the SymBioWare device to capture signals from plants. This collaboration resulted in the Biophony: Dancing Nature Art Project — a multimedia performance and programmatic art installations, presented at the residency’s conclusion and later shown at Ars Electronica 2024.
In 2025 she developed Neurographia, an experimental performance combining EEG brainwave data with Butoh dance, extending her research into biofeedback and embodied generative art.
Kvitka also engages in collaborative and curatorial practices. She worked with Dschungel Wien Theater as a multimedia scenographer in the project DramaLab: Exploring New Meanings, bridging performance, stage design and digital scenography. As a digital curator, she conceived and realized Language Machine for the Wrong Biennale, selecting artists and building the full online experience. She also designed the web-based platform for Biophony: Dancing Nature, integrating interactive storytelling and multimedia content.
