“I create from truth,
not from
urgency.”
Ela Bochenek is an intuitive abstract artist born in Poland and based in Scarborough.
Working with mixed media and natural materials, she creates layered worlds that explore texture, depth, and transformation.
Her work invites a slower way of seeing, encouraging you to look beneath the surface and to sense the quiet stories that linger in each piece.
Each series reflects a distinct part of her creative practice, from intimate studies on paper to richly textured paintings on canvas and wood.
“My process is intuitive and layered.
I don’t follow strict steps.
Each piece begins differently and often surprises me as it develops.”
