About me
Energy, passion, and vision - three words that best summarise my personality. To expand ideas and social engagement come very naturally to me. I absorb a wide variety of content in trends and movements in the arts, design, politics, and culture. Social equality is the driving force behind my ambitions in life. Since I remember I have had a deep inner need for connecting the dots. This love for organizing ideas and information translated into my passion for history and art, as well as writing and storytelling. As photography and curating graduate, over the last 5 years, I have co-founded and led many grassroots art initiatives in London and in my native Kraków, Poland where I have successfully managed multiple areas of development from branding, developing social and mass media strategies, copywriting, research, networking; through and liaising with artists and organizations, planning budgets; to producing, and curating events and more. I am an art curator specializing in art direction, social media engagement, and independent exhibition making, with an interest in intersectional feminism and slow art activism. I have co-founded two London-based arts organizations, ONE Project - a slow art platform, and Red Zenith Collective, a networking platform of Central and Eastern European female and non-binary creatives. In Poland, I have co-founded the first of its kind public institution championing art and history of women - Muzeum Herstorii Sztuki (Museum of Herstory of Art), where I have worked with artists and influencers simultaneously being responsible for lobbying local government representatives. Additionally, I was editor-in-chief of the Museum’s self-published ARIADNA zine. Since 2019 I am a co-creator of London-based not-for-profit organization artBLAB, which focuses on bringing multifaceted art events to artists and art aficionados around the world, which I single-handedly transformed from offline into an online format and where I am responsible for talent scouting and liaising with organizations and artists, as well as running monthly art meditation sessions.
