biography

born on 10.02.1993 in Tarnowskie Góry. She graduated in 2018 from University of Silesia, Department of Arts. Her diploma include Graphic Design  (supervisor: dr hab. Stefan Lechwar), Printmaking (supervisor: prof. dr hab. Joanna Piech-Kalarus) and Drawing annex under the guidance of dr hab. Tomasz Tobolewski. In 2017 she was granted a one-year scholarship at Universidad Bellas Artes UCLM, Spain (Erasmus program). That gave her the opportunity to work with different graphic media.

Her art presents surreal visions, accumulated through a variety of ambiguous graphics, leaving them in an understated atmosphere. It reflects the moral and spiritual state of humanity. The creative process intuitively assumes the forms that are present and the image built together with the inspirations of the next drawing.
