Originally from Poland, I moved to the UK 21 years ago. I built a successful career as a middle manager in the retail industry, but despite its security, I felt increasingly drawn towards a more creative and purposeful path. I wanted to make something tangible—work that would endure and carry meaning.

Having always enjoyed working with my hands, discovering the blacksmithing course at Hereford College of Arts felt like a turning point. I left my career in retail behind and dedicated myself to learning the craft, embracing the challenge of transforming raw steel into functional and sculptural forms.

Today, I have returned to Poland to begin a new chapter in my journey. Working from my own workshop, I continue to develop my practice, combining traditional blacksmithing techniques with contemporary design. Every piece I create reflects a commitment to craftsmanship, honesty of materials, and the enduring beauty of handmade work.
