In 2019, she received an honorable mention in the 3rd Winter Youth Salon at Zofia Weiss Gallery and an honorable mention in the CALL4ARTS2019 competition organized by the 4Style Foundation. The artist is interested in the theme of night, restlessness and melancholy feelings. She also draws her inspiration from film culture, following the psychology of the characters and the specificity of building tension, as well as symbolism and understatement hidden in the layers of reality. In his canvases, he walks with quiet steps through night streets illuminated by single window lights, as well as travels by train through the evening forest wilderness. He follows the lives of animals after dark with night vision, trying to understand the mood of oppression and horror hanging in the misty air. The world of childhood fears hidden in the basement is intertwined with an emotional nature whose instincts are as untamed as our own.
