In 2008, her diploma work "DODEKALOG" (a series of posters inspired by the work of Krzysztof Kieślowski) was presented at the Zamek Cultural Center in Poznań during the 12th edition of the OFF CINEMA International Film Festival. Her paintings have been presented at several solo exhibitions (including in Krakow), most of them are in private collections. She always looks for inspiration in nature and likes to observe her immediate surroundings. The play of light and shadow and color play an important role in her works. She likes sharp contours and strong contrasts. But it is light that is the key element that builds the mood, and often even becomes an autonomous artistic issue, worth exploring and pushing the subject to the background.
