Biography
In 2010 she defended her master's degree in painting at the Art Institute in Cieszyn. The artist's painting inspiration for a long time was the cities she lived in: Bytom, Krakow, New York, or Stockholm. She portrayed people, often completely unknown to her, capturing the atmosphere of a particular place and moment. At present, the man is still her leitmotif. She shows him as an actor caught up in conventions, the theater of life, the products of human culture, collectivity (the "Audience" series). The contrast is an individual in an intimate world, where the boundary between reality and fable begins to blur, and the performances become peculiar metaphors (the "Book" series). He enjoys illustrating fairy tales. Individual exhibitions: Bytom Promotion Office, Bytom 2013 - Mitteleurop; "Vintage Curtains", Stockholm 2012. Group exhibitions: Rondo Sztuki, Katowice 2015; Nest Gallery, Geneva 2013; Useum, London 2012; Mitteleurop, Stockholm 2011; National Museum, Kielce - post-competition exhibition (first prize in Adam Korpak's "Drawn Aphorisms" competition). Her works have been used several times for book cover designs (e.g., Stockholm University).
