Biography
A graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice, specializing in painting and graphic design. She completed her master’s degree, defending her thesis under the supervision of Prof. Ireneusz Walczak, Ph.D. Her thesis project, inspired by the themes of PMS and menstruation, is a series of paintings that address taboo subjects in an everyday context, depicted with detachment and sensitivity. In her artistic practice, she also draws inspiration from dreams and fantasies, giving her work a unique character.
She earned her bachelor’s degree in graphic design, during which she created *An Illustrated History of Painting*—an educational book for children that combines creativity with an accessible approach to art. She works as a graphic designer, constantly combining her artistic expertise with practical visual skills. Her creative work and professional career are a perfect example of the synergy between art and design.
