Artist based in Sopot working in the trend of expressionist abstraction colorfield painting. Graduate of painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdansk, one of the first graduates of the late Jerzy Ostrogórski. Finalist of the All-Polish Leon Wyczółkowski Painting Competition at BWA in Bydgoszcz in 2020; finalist of the 13th Triennale of Small Painting Forms in Toruń in 2019 and the 3rd Pomeranian Art Triennale in Sopot. A characteristic feature of her paintings is that she works on raw, untreated canvas with a technique she has developed for working with acrylic paints, which penetrate the canvas to create a vividly colored matte and noble surface. She has participated in group and solo exhibitions at home and abroad. Her works are in private collections in Poland, Australia, the United States, Sweden, Portugal, Spain and in the collection of the National Art Gallery in Sopot.
