I am a multidisciplinary artist. My work is an exploration of memory, identity, corporeality and human interaction with space and time. I am interested in states of unspokenness – what is hidden behind masks, gestures, colours, states. I often address themes of family connections, mental and emotional transformation, loss, trauma, emigration, exploring how personal experience affects perceptions of self and the world around us. It is important to me to explore how the individual dissolves and simultaneously manifests in form, nature, and portraiture.

I work with photography, collage, drawing and installation. Through an intuitive dialogue with materials and characters, I create images that combine the documentary with the personal, visualising what is difficult to put into words – presence, trace, inner changes. One of the key visual tools is the colour red as a symbol of life, body, blood, pain, trauma, tension, vulnerability, strength, love. Red is a pulse, an inner movement, an emotion. In my works red is a way of talking about what is not spoken, but felt with every cell.

Living between Ukraine and Poland, I feel the themes of war, loss, searching for home and the formation of a new collective memory particularly acutely. My art is a way of seeing and feeling, a way of transforming inner experience into a visual language that triggers dialogue, empathy and provokes rethinking. For me, it is a form of presence and an attempt to hold on to the fragile, the ephemeral.
