Nastka Drabot
Nastka Drabot’s creative practice combines her academic training as an architect with years of professional experience as a self-taught graphic designer and illustrator. Nastka describes her work as very colourful and vibrant with simple shapes. An architecture graduate from the Warsaw University of Technology, she looks for geometry in her illustrations and enhances her work with dynamic details.
The subject matter of her work highlights women from around the world. It also focuses on folklore and wildlife. Additionally, Nastka often produces posters that focus on current affairs and political events.
Nastka has had a political poster published in Gazeta Wyborcza, a popular daily Polish magazine. A poster she designed to highlight the Biebrza National Park wildfires was shared by at least 3000 people online. She has also created a mural in the Polish town of Żagań. Her work is produced digitally using her PC, iPad and the Affinity Designer software. Originally from Ostrołęka, she currently lives and works in Warsaw, Poland.
