Natalia Wirmańska 

A graduate in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice, this artist primarily focuses on oil painting and various drawing techniques. Her work is deeply rooted in the center of her origin. Drawing inspiration from photographs documenting life, especially in the Podhale region, she attempts to confront the depicted situations with her own often challenging personal experiences and memories. In her painting and drawing, she embarks on a journey through the stories of her past, primarily referring to her childhood. In addition to exploring interpersonal relationships, she attaches equal importance to highlighting inter-species relationships.
