Aldona Kmieć is a Polish-born Australian photographic artist based in Melbourne. Her connection to the land has profoundly influenced her art practice dedicated to photography, installation, and mixed media. Her twilight landscapes from the Wimmera series portray the stark dryness of the Australian landscape, while her recent Veil artworks explore memory and time through long-exposure photography and compositions of colour.
Winner and finalist of several photographic awards including Omnia Art Prize (2025), Mullins Conceptual Photography Prize (2024), Contemporary Landscapes in Photography (CLIP) Award (2024), Linden Postcard Show Play Award (2024), Bowness Photography Prize (2014) and Bluethumb Art Prize (2021) amongst others.
Aldona exhibits regularly throughout Australia and overseas. Her work has been featured on The Block Show (2019), The Design Files magazine (2015) and Better Homes & Gardens TV (2015) featuring a street art paste-up project in Ballarat. Her works are held in the public collection of the State Library of Victoria, St John of God Art Collection, former Museum of Democracy at Eureka (M.A.D.E.) in Ballarat, Ballarat Arts Foundation and private collections worldwide.
