Daria Barbara Bartoś Collection
In a world of painterly contrasts and veiled gazes, her works, brimming with expression and mystery, find their natural place. She is an artist who pursues her own creative path with determination and passion, creating works on large-format canvases that adorn spaces around the world. Her artistic journey began in an unconventional way – without formal artistic training, but with a childhood fascination and years of practice. Even as a child, she spent afternoons attending extracurricular painting classes led by a talented teacher, where her love for various painting techniques and experiments was born. These experiences later became the foundation of her creative identity.
Her paintings are a unique study in contrasts—both color and thematic. Her most powerful appeal is the motif of women's faces, whose eyes are deliberately obscured, thus emphasizing their inner strength, mystery, and the universality of emotions. The worlds of light and shadow intertwine in her paintings, leaving the viewer in a state of reflective suspension.
She continually expands her artistic horizons, creating both in classical painting techniques and exploring new forms of expression in contemporary media. Her works live not only on canvases but also become part of the space as wallpaper, glass paintings, and fabrics, taking art to a whole new dimension.
Although she didn't pursue formal art studies, the experience she gained working in engineering and quality assurance environments proved invaluable. Leading projects that streamlined manufacturing processes taught her precision, attention to detail, and the courage to experiment—qualities that resonate strongly in her work.
Her art has gained international recognition, reaching collectors and enthusiasts worldwide. Through constant development, the pursuit of new means of expression, and the creation of works that resonate with viewers, she consistently builds her artistic path, inspiring others to discover the beauty hidden in contrast.
