Paulina Siniatkina is an artist and activist who works with a form of autobiographical reflective research. Her socially-oriented practice is driven by her personal experience of surviving tuberculosis in 2015 and is dedicated to fighting stigma and rethinking what is considered "normal." Paulina’s work delves into collective trauma and social taboos through various art mediums, including painting, sculpture, installation, performance and film. Her works can be found in the collections of such organizations as Stop TB Partnership in Geneva, the Bill & Melinda Gates Medical Research Institute in Boston, and Oxford Immunotec in London etc.
