^{The intaglio prints are a series that is my annex to my master’s degree. They are a visual attempt to reconstruct the world of dreams, or rather nightmares, in which the boundaries between reality and imagination are blurred, and fears, longings and memories take on a symbolic form. These prints are a journey through the subconscious, where imagination intertwines with real experience. The motif of the eye also appears in these works – both human and non-human. These eyes do not only function as passive observers – on the contrary, they seem to penetrate reality, having access to what is hidden, subcutaneous and unexpressed. Black, dominant in my works, becomes a metaphor for the unknown, a space from which images emerge that are difficult to define unequivocally – just like dreams, the meaning of which often eludes rational cognition. The annex is also an attempt to find the intersection point between nightmare and reality – a place where a dream begins to influence the perception of reality. While working on this series, I was constantly fascinated by horror literature – especially the work of H.P. Lovecraft, who masterfully used uncertainty, inexpressible fear and the mystery of existence. These inspirations have left their mark on the nature of my graphics, which seek an alternative reality – one laced with anxiety, but also curiosity.}
