About the artist
"In my paintings, I hide stories, emotions, and meanings"
A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and a finalist for the 2018 Eibisch Prize, she works with oil, acrylic, tempera, and gouache. Her minimalist figures serve as a metaphor for the quiet, spiritual journey of the individual - a quest for self-discovery, intimacy, and one’s own place in the world.
