I am a contemporary artist currently active in Krakow, creating expressive paintings primarily in the language of lyrical abstraction. Educated as an English Philologist and a scholar at Universita per Stranieri di Perugia, I have long been engaged in artistic creation. Beyond painting, I have an interest in interior design and furniture restoration. I developed my painting skills over several years at Art Studnia - School of Drawing and Painting in Krakow, under the guidance of the painter Marcin Andrzej Telega. I have also participated in numerous international workshops, including a training led by the Californian artist Nicholas Wilton.
For me, painting and contemporary art represent spaces of freedom, openness, and diversity. My artistic journey began with acrylic painting, often combined with collage techniques. As I evolved, I gravitated towards acrylic inks and watercolours, which allowed for more spontaneity and emotional engagement. In my work, I utilize natural elements such as paper, water, and pigment, which resonate with my intuition and imagination rather than merely replicating reality. Painting has become a form of meditation and tranquility for me, a method to deeply connect with my inner self and the external world. Each artwork is a reflection of my experiences, thoughts, and emotions, with the creation process enabling me to immerse in a state of focus and peace. My art is a dialogue with the viewer, an invitation to jointly explore the complexities of human experiences through the prism of colours and forms.
I often choose not to title my works as I believe that leaving them unnamed allows viewers the freedom to interpret them in the most personal and unrestricted way possible. I want my art to be a space of feeling, where everyone can find their own meaning and emotional resonance.

"... The artist's work exudes features of lyrical abstraction. Her works provide the viewer with a revitalizing sense of peace, stability, energy and even fun. It's an invigorating range of evocative possibilities available with paint and canvas, even without objective images. The images convey dramatic yet balanced visual expressions, at once 'engineered' and spontaneously flowing, dynamic. They represent an emotional respite from a world that overwhelms us with its intensity and provide a refreshing escape into pure color, movement and design. Varying in visual impact, the images share a similar purpose: to evoke a sense of essence and an all-important connection to higher, more esoteric worlds. There is a balanced, aesthetic elegance in the artist's lyrical abstraction. These works represent viewpoints and beliefs, but are rarely sentimental; they are vivid or subtle and soothing, but above all - charged with emotions".
