ARTIST STATEMENT

My art is a process-led and  exploratory and my  creative practice is closely link with
ecology and the natural world as I focus on working with materials derived
directly from the environment, resulting in a body of work that is both experimental and
grounded in sustainability.

I produce botanical inks using wild and commonly found plants, which I use to
create organic, gestural drawings that evoke natural forms. My practice also include botanical dyeing and direct plant printing on fabric, further emphasizing the tactile
engagement with nature.

In 2024, I was awarded Art and Design Global Challenges Scholarship, which supported
my research into developing plant-based materials for three-dimensional works. This
included the creation of bioplastics and casting powders derived from eggshells—innovative
materials that align with her commitment to eco-conscious making.

My work subtly explores and reflects the interconnectedness of nature, science, and art, aiming to evoke curiosity and invite viewers to consider the overlooked, ephemeral, and poetic aspects of the environment.

At the heart of my approach to art making lies the idea of connection—between materials and the environment, between artist and audience, and between people and place. Recently I have started to explore in more depth my Polish rural heritage and these ideas of belonging and continuity through nature.

I am an experience art educator currently working as a teacher of art and design on part-time basis.  She also delivers community workshops on botanical inks and dyes and takes commissions.

Kasia is always open to collaboration with other artists and making cross industry links.
