About me

From Poland. In Reykjavík since 2013.

The author of a collection of short stories and poems Polishing Iceland (Ísland pólerað) and the editor of an essay collection by foreign-born writiers in Iceland Writer’s Adrift (Skáldreki).

Educated in culture studies, creative writing, and visual art, I’m passionate about words and stories.

Since 2015, one of the board memebers and founding authors of Ós Pressan, a non-profit initiative and a publishing house established to bring out and promote new authors and to create an inclusive writing community in Iceland.

From 2019 to 2023, I was a writer and project manager at Reykjavík Ensemble, an international theatre company. My writing has been featured in the company’s performances, plays, and video productions: Opening Ceremony, Polishing Iceland, I Shall Always Return, Liminality, Fucking Genius.

I’ve been working as a Polish language consultant for Icelandic theatres (Þjóðleikhúsið, Gaflaraleikhúsið, Reykjavík Ensemble), supporting Icelandic actors, playwrights, and filmmakers.

My writing has been published in Icelandic journals (Tímarit Máls og Menningar, Ós - The Journal, Stundin) and exhibited during festivals and art shows in Iceland and abroad. In my texts, I play around with private and public identities, personal stories, and memories. I write mostly in English while polishing my Icelandic.

In 2021, I was a columnist at Tímarit Máls og menningar, one of the oldest literary magazines in Iceland.

In 2022 and 2023, I received Listamannalaun, a prestigious Icelandic stipend from the government-funded Artists‘ Salary Fund.
