biography

Birn in 1995

graduated from Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice with distinction and obtained her diploma at the Intaglio Techniques Studio in 2019.  

Her work focuses on painting, book illustrations and intaglio techniques. Her graphics and paintings show the diversity and changeability of our identity. She understands identities as mosaic structures, where all of our relationships converge alongside our life experiences and the world that surrounds us. Among all of these elements, art is Hancharova's way of questioning her true self.

She has taken part in over 40 collective exhibitions and competitions internationally.

self-commentary

''In my series of graphics and paintings, I try to show the diversity and changeability of our identity. The graphics were created using the mezzotint technique. Our identity’s structure is infinitely complex and changing throughout our whole lives. I look at personality in its temporary status, its mosaic structure combining all our relationships, our life experiences and the world that surrounds us. I look for the answer to the question about my own ‘me’. I try to connect, reconcile and verify what actually words I, consciousness, subconsciousness and brain mean. What I discover is that only the change is permanent and the idea of a human being as a uniform entity seems to be an illusion.''
