Biography
"Polish artist who creates video, animated films and photographs. From 2004 to 2005 she studied at the Faculty of Arts of the Maria Curie-Sklodowska University in Lublin, and then at the Faculty of Graphic Arts of the Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow in the studio of photography by Agata Pankiewicz, interdisciplinary by Grzegorz Sztwiertnia and Zbigniew Sałaj. She currently lives and works in Cracow.
The artist's works have been shown in Warsaw's National Art Gallery "Zachęta", Berlin's KW Institute of Contemporary Art, among others. She bases her works largely on previously found material, such as archival illustrations photographs, which she subjects to subtle interventions, animating them or otherwise interfering with them, thus giving them a new context.The presented object is a fragment of the set design for the Polish film ""Sensitization to Color"" about Włodzimierz Borowski, shown at the Early Years exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw. The sculpture is a replica (author's interpertation) of one of Borowski's Artones."
