About me

Director and producer with a background in fine arts and extensive experience in animation, film,
and audiovisual creation. I work at the intersection of art and media, combining an independent artistic sensibility with a professional approach to production. I created and hosted my own television program broadcast on TVP Kultura, and have directed and produced a wide range of projects—including films, animated works, and multimedia pieces.

I frequently oversee creative teams (animators, cinematographers, editors), ensuring artistic integrity and high production standards.

My focus lies in exploring film as a medium of storytelling, emotion, and form—for cinema, television, digital platforms, and contemporary art contexts.
