Biography
A graduate of political science at the University of Warsaw, she has been professionally involved in the media and creative industries for over a decade. Her works oscillate between magical realism and surrealism, from which she draws her greatest inspiration. Strong contrasts and intense colors are present in her artistic creations, as is a fascination with the cosmos and its objects. Both the night and day skies, with the wealth of phenomena that appear in them, often serve as the main subject or an important context for other depicted content. She also creates from her imagination, constructing mysterious, undefined spaces that exist outside of time and are governed by their own laws. In her paintings, she strives to connect the material, earthly world with the spiritual and the elusive—that which transcends sensory experience and logical analysis. Abra has participated in numerous exhibitions in Poland, including a solo exhibition at the Jaś i Małgosia Gallery in Warsaw (2025).
