Patrycja RUDNIK (b. 1984), Between Worlds, 2026

oil, canvas, 50 x 40 cm, signed p.d.: P.Rudnik 2026R.

Born in 1984 in Silesia. She comes from a family of artists - not only highly regarded painters, but also writers and musicians.

She is a painter who has been creating professionally for three years. During this time she has created about 300 paintings, almost all of which have found their buyers. Her works have found their way to collectors not only in Poland, but also in Germany, Norway, Great Britain, Scotland and the United States.

Despite the relatively short period of her professional activity, her work has received recognition from the art community. She has participated in solo exhibitions, including at the Rybnik Land Theater, and her painting Literally Still Life 2 was accepted for auction at the Art in House auction house. Her work has also inspired other artists - the painting Ciii... was used as the cover of the book Hard Path by Radoslaw Stopka.

She works mainly in the trend of magical and symbolic realism, increasingly reaching towards surrealism. She paints landscapes and still lifes of a mysterious, sometimes alchemical nature, inspired by nature - especially the forest, mushrooms and ancient beliefs. Her paintings balance between the real world and the realm of myth and imagination, building an atmosphere of silence, transformation and hidden narrative. She is sometimes referred to as the "Amanite Painter" due to her distinctive subject matter.
