Alicja Melzacka (Poland, 1993) is a curator living in Maastricht and working in and between places, often on the train. Between 2020 and 2023 she was a curator at Jester (earlier CIAP) – a presentation and residency space in Genk.
In 2019, she completed a postgraduate programme in Curatorial Studies at KASK, Ghent, and before that, she studied art history, heritage studies, and applied linguistics and translation. Language in its various forms and contexts continues to be her main interest.
Her texts were published in artists’ books, exhibition catalogues, and art magazines. In 2022, she curated Hypertext Hotel at SB34 in Brussels, which conceived of an exhibition as a collective work of interactive fiction.
