Karina Kopszynska-Janiszewska

Karina Kopczyńska-Janiszewska is a Polish artist whose practice includes painting, printmaking and exlibris. Born in Drawsko Pomorskie, she studied at the University of Szczecin's Faculty of Biology and Marine Sciences and later undertook postgraduate studies that included art.

She expanded her practice into printmaking in 2008. Her techniques include linocut, intaglio engraving on plastic, copper engraving, etching and drypoint, alongside computer-generated graphics. Bookplates form a particular focus within her small-format work.

Her prints were presented at the Public Library in Środa Śląska in 2013 and the Municipal Public Library in Żagań in 2015. The Żagań exhibition, drawn from Gustaw Lis's collection, brought together 100 prints. Her work has also appeared in the Bibliotheca Alexandrina's miniature-print biennial catalogue.
