In 1993, she also graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw where she studied sculpture and Hochschule für Graphik und Buchkunst in Leipzig.

Her photo portrait of Slawomir Belina in a Warsaw exhibition in 2000 was also controversial for its alleged eroticism, as his anus was in the centre of the composition.

[4] In 1999, she represented Poland in the 48th Venice Biennale where she won an honorable mention and commendation for video installation "Men’s Bathhouse".

[1] While quoting a theme from Grimm Brother's fairy tale The Bremen Town Musicians, the work concerns human involvement in industrial animal killing procedure and the normalization of murder when part of the food chain.

The women in all the photographs have one thing in common – black ribbon wrapped around the neck to symbolizes mourning and to hearken back to the work by Manet.

Kozyra's intention was to show how women really appear in situation where nobody is looking and when they don't need to follow beauty canons.

Kozyra went into a men's bathhouse with fake penis attached to her and a towel hung on her shoulders covering the breasts.

The series of visual art, music, and performance is released in phases of the project, each as a separate work although they are intended to be combined in a feature film.

Anda Rottenberg, Director of the Zachęta National Gallery of Art in Warsaw where Kozyra first showed "Bath house" in 1997 and who also purchased the work, sparked off controversy by writing to Art Monthly in October 1998 and claiming that Kozyra's "Bath house" and artist Tacita Dean's 1998 "Gellert" were of the same subject: the most famous bathhouse in Budapest.
