I am a visual artist. I completed my undergraduate studies at the Institute of Creative Photography at the University of Silesia in Opava (Czech Republic). I am currently engaged in the pursuit of a Master's degree in Art and Design at the University of the National Education Commission in Krakow. Additionally, I am a lecturer at the Academy of Photography in Krakow. My work has been exhibited and published worldwide, and I have received photography awards in the USA, Poland, Japan, and Italy, among others.
My work is informed by a diverse range of natural phenomena. I conceptualise my practice as a subjective documentary, exploring the intersections between personal experience and cultural narratives. I am particularly drawn to the study of legends and myths
I published my first photobook In Praise of Shadow together with Rust Publishing.
