LABYRINTH

This piece was made in a moment of expansive joy — layered with texture, impulse, and delight. It holds a memory of movement, colour, and the unexpected pathways that open when we let our senses guide us.

Inspired by New York — a city that gives itself to those who follow pleasure like a compass — it reflects what happens when you don’t try to plan the treasure, but stumble into it. Vibrancy layered upon vibrancy. A kind of chaos that rewards trust. A map you feel your way through, not one you read.

Created outdoors at my seaside home it carries that feeling of fresh possibility — wild but grounded. It’s a painting to live with, to lift a room, to catch the eye and reward return. There’s always more. It shifts with the light. It vibrates with joy. And it reminds you: there’s magic in the choosing.

I’m an artist with a deep love for emotional mark-making, layered materials, and the unseen stories that emerge through paint. I was born in Poland and moved to Australia in my late teens. After studying in Melbourne, New York, and Berlin, I lived in Melbourne for over 30 years before making a sea change to Gippsland — where I now live and work among birdsong, a wild garden, and one very unruly dog.

My work is grounded in raw pigments, sacred materials, and emotion-led mark-making. It explores gesture, energy, and the unseen stories held in the body — often evolving from a single feeling or instinct into layered, intuitive compositions.

I hold advanced diplomas in both visual art and photography. I’ve exhibited in group and solo shows across Australia and have received several art awards along the way. I often reuse old frames for their history and resonance, and I work across large and small formats — from intimate studies to bold, expressive pieces.

Right now, I’m building two bodies of work: one deeply soulful, and one created simply for joy.
