About me
I am an artist working in the fields of theater, film, and graphic design. From the beginning, my path has been two-pronged: while studying Graphic Arts at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, I created my first set design projects. Discovering the language of theater inspired me to begin directing studies at the Theatre Academy in Warsaw. Today, I direct my own theater and film projects and collaborate on other artists' visions as a set designer, costume designer, and video director. I also pursue graphic design, drawing, and illustration. I believe that all these disciplines feed off each other, giving me a unique perspective on each story I tackle in my artistic practice.
Post scriptum
I believe in a balanced artistic practice that leaves room to breathe. My professional and life experiences have led me to the point where my passion for windsurfing has evolved into a parallel career path. This combination gives me greater freedom, a healthy perspective on the industry, and stability in the realities of freelance work. My goal is conscious, balanced creativity.

Eco web design
This website was designed according to the principles of eco-web design - as a consciously lightweight digital structure.
Rather than replicating large image and video files that already exist online, the site functions as a visual landmark: a space that introduces artistic practice without overburdening the digital infrastructure. Limiting data transfer is a design decision here—a gesture of environmental responsibility and a reflection on the ways images are produced and distributed in the online space.
The full portfolio is available as a downloadable PDF file. The document serves as an extended archive of work, containing projects with active links to videos, publications, and contextual materials, all remaining in their original digital environments.
This form of presentation treats website design as part of an artistic practice: a negotiation between the visibility, accessibility, and material responsibility of digital tools.
This website was created thanks to a grant from the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (KPO). From September 2025 to February 2026, I developed artistic, digital, and ecological skills, resulting in an original, hybrid website designed in accordance with the principles of eco-web design.
The project was financed under the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (KPO) from the European Union Next Generation EU funds, as part of the investment A2.5.1 "Programme for supporting the activities of entities in the cultural sector and creative industries to stimulate their development".
The website was created in collaboration with Katarzyna Borelowska , a digital designer who co-created the design process and ensured that eco-web design standards were maintained.
