Born in 1982 in Warsaw, she studied Industrial Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw and illustration at the Universität der Künste in Berlin. As an illustrator, she worked for print media and it was indeed her passion for illustration that resulted in the first OKO vases – born out of artistic curiosity that pushed the artist to examine how a familiar drawing would work in the three-dimensional world of everyday objects. The first object from the OKO family was conceived in 2014 and since then the family has been constantly growing.
