My name is Izabela Petryla, I am a painter after studying art from Poland. My life is deeply connected with art. In the past, I have always aspired to take this direction professionally as well. I am currently working for Chiharu Shiota as an assistant artist. I am a committed, ambitious person and like to learn new things. I find myself great in all kinds of manual work. Years ago, I worked as a restorer and did stucco head. I also have experience in set design. I am eager to get involved in various projects and I find myself great in group work. I have experience in running an art gallery, 3 years ago I got involved in running a gallery/art space which gave me great joy, I learned how to organize exhibitions and curatorial functions there. I am currently living in Berlin, creating my art and working for other artists. I am looking for new experiences and skills.
