Born in 1990, in Warsaw, Poland. She is a PhD student in printmaking at the E.Geppert Academy of Fine Art and Design in Wrocław, where she also obtained her master of art degree in Printmaking and Graphic Design. She also holds the bachelor degree in Culture Studies. In her artistic works and research, she examines the fragment, its meanings, and unique dichotomies in the context of the paradox of the individual; not dividable and united but dispersed into infinite fragments in reality. She is analyzing the most unforeseen and extraordinary force; appearance through disappearance.
She is approaching printmaking, papermaking, and artists’ books with an experimental attitude towards their application and limits. She obtained several awards and honorary mentions, took part in more than 120 exhibitions worldwide.
