In 2015 she took part in Warsaw Under Construction Festival, and in 2016 her video won her the main award at the International Students’ Art Review in Wozownia Art Gallery in Torun. In 2019 she was chosen by Dryphoto artecontemporanea for the photographic residency in Prato (Italy) as one of the 3 photographers under 35 working and living in Italy. In the end of 2019 she became an Artist in Resident of Museums Quartier Vienna working for two months as an artist and sharing her pieces with the public.
The films, photographs, and installations that she creates are postconceptual creations. In her minimalistic pieces – delicate deconstructions of spaces – she asks questions about identity, both her own as well as a collective one.
