Aleksandra Lacheta, a graduate of the Władysław Strzemiński Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź, earned her diploma in the studio of Professor Łukasz Chmielewski. She works in painting, drawing, and graphic design. In 2020, she was nominated for the "Prime Stage" award at the Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź. She participated in exhibitions, including the "Art Naif Festival" at the Szyb and Wilson Gallery in 2021. Lacheta also paints for charity, including for the WOŚP Foundation. Her art focuses on animal motifs, depicted in a subtle, somewhat fairytale-like manner. Drawing inspiration from nature, she portrays animals both realistically and fantastically. Lacheta aims for the animals in her paintings to evoke emotions: curiosity, sympathy, and even a smile triggered by pleasant memories or associations. In painting portraits of human companions, she focuses on animals as living and significant beings. Through her work, she seeks to establish a connection with the viewer, aiming to evoke empathy and reflection.
