Pati Dubiel was born in 1977 in Krosno, the city of glass, an important center of the Polish glass industry. She graduated from the High School of Fine Arts in Krosno, and then from the Department of Ceramics and Glass at the Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw. She has participated in many collective and individual exhibitions. She has won several awards and scholarships. Her works are present in the collections of museums, art-related institutions and collections of private individuals. She actively participates in the activities of the Polish Artists Union. She is the author of the art program, exhibitions and events at the "Versus" art gallery in Wroclaw. Pati Dubiel lives and creates in Poland, in Wroclaw , where her studio is located, where since graduating from the Academy of Fine Arts in Wroclaw she has been perfecting her drawing technique and her own technique of graphics and painting encased in glass.
Patrycja has always been interested in drawing, color and form. She has developed her own technique of "enclosing" an image, a kind of story in glass. Dubiel, using the whole range of available possibilities for glass processing, has created her own, very individual and recognizable style, which cannot be confused with any other. In her work, the artist is guided by intuition, while trying to show her world. The rich narrative that characterizes Pati Dubiel's drawings and sculptures is accompanied by great attention to every detail.
The artist does not shy away from the use of devices such as airbrush, silk-screen, waterjet in her work - no less, she believes that true art should "contain" as much as possible of the artist himself, his sensitivity, spirit and creative action. Dubiel's works are inspired by what surrounds her - both nature and man himself, with his whole range of emotions and feelings. The creation of Pati Dubiel's glass sculptures is, as she herself says, like building a house - she starts with the foundations, the base, the general outline of the work and ends with the fine-tuning of the details of the composition. The details and finishing touches complete and add to the whole.
Using a variety of techniques, she achieves the intended effect - showing the beauty and possibilities of glass and incorporating the story she wants to convey to the viewer. Drawing for Pati Dubiel, on the other hand, is a form of contemplating life, and one can see in them the artist's ability to capture details, build compositions and depict realities processed and transformed by her imagination. Not infrequently, these drawings inspire the creation of unique glass forms.
