Zuzana Pustaiová (1990, Slovaška) je mednarodno uspešna fotografinja in pomembna predstavnica mlajše generacije slovaških fotografov, ki je nedavno zaključila doktorski študij iz umetnosti na Akademiji za likovno umetnost in oblikovanje v Bratislavi. V svojem delu raziskuje tematiko družine, zapletenosti družinskih odnosov, kot tudi odnos do družinske zgodovine in porekla. Pri tem se referira na konvencije različnih vlog tako v družinski enoti kot tudi v družbi. Z duhovitostjo, humorjem in ironijo se tako dotakne mnogih kulturnih stereotipov glede razlik med spoloma, starosti, tradicij in družbene vključenosti.
V Galeriji Photon v Ljubljani se bo po sodelovanju v nekaj skupinskih razstavah prvič predstavila s samostojno razstavo. Ta bo vključevala izbor del iz njenih novejših projektov Faces of Family, s katerim je leta 2018 zasedla prvo mesto na festivalu Photodays Rovinj, ter s svojim doktorskim projektom One Day Everyday, ki ji je v letu 2021 prinesel tudi nagrado Grand Prix na istem festivalu v letu 2021.

Zuzana Pustaiová (1990, Slovakia) is an internationally recognized photographer and an important representative of the younger generation of Slovak photographers, who recently completed her PhD in Art at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava. In her work, she explores the themes of family, the intricacies of familial relationships, and the relationship to family history and origins. She is concerned with the conventions of the various roles within the family and in society. With wit, humour and irony, she thus exposes various cultural stereotypes related to gender, age, tradition and social inclusion.
After participating in several group exhibitions, she will now hold her first solo exhibition at Photon Gallery in Ljubljana. This will feature selected works from her recent projects Faces of Family, which won first prize at Photodays Rovinj in 2018, and her PhD project One Day Everyday, for which she also won the Grand Prix at the same festival in 2021.
