For Małgorzata Sęk, painting is an attempt to capture what is most important in the subject of portraiture - the character, mood and, above all, the emotion accompanying the model, the given situation and space. Thus, it is a very subjective look at a given moment of reality perceived by the author extremely emotionally. The creative process itself and the feelings accompanying it are very personal and sometimes even more important than the end result, which is the "finished work."
The painter's works can be found in private collections at home and abroad.
