Beata draws inspiration from nature, especially from the lines that build the multi-layered structure of our world, from the multiculturalism and the multi-layered nature of the North-Eastern region of Poland.

She tries to cross not only geographical and cultural boundaries, but also the boundaries of human perception within her work. She has a strong connection to double-warp fabric, jacquard, tapestry, handicrafts and screen printing. Multilayerism, graphical purity and light are the main building blocks of its implementation.

She is a long-distance runner not only in sports, and values cooperation with people and a smile.
