ANNA ZYGMUNT

I was born in Sosnowiec 1976, Poland. My artistic career has begun at the National School of Fine Arts in Katowice 1991-1996 (Poland) where I obtained qualifications in Sculpture (the title of Visual Artist).
I studied painting, drawing, sculpture, lettering and calligraphy, designing, history of art and history of philosophy among other art related subjects. In years 1996-2002 I studied linguistics at Silesian University, English Philology Department (MA).
In my artistic career my primary choice are oil paintings which are born when my mind crosses the thin line between consciousness and subconsciousness. Artistic work needs the exploration and combination of the past and present by means of new forms of expression based on inner spiritual values. Last years I have concentrated on the subject of a woman. A woman, which for me, is a combination of extreme emotions; ethereal beauty but at the same time strong values. It is the subject which may serve a lifelong inspiration and as the art history shows it has always been a big challenge to artists.
