ARCHEO is a 3D animation film that uses "particles" (thousands of tiny, basic shapes) to construct the target object – a virtual sculpture of Aphrodite.

The film Survival offers a grotesque critique of homelessness and environmental decay through a unique blend of live-action and diverse animation techniques, including pixilation and 3D. As an auteur project, it integrates these styles seamlessly to create a striking artistic vision. Its scenography embraces upcycling or "trash art," echoing Marcel Duchamp’s legacy of elevating banal objects into profound art. By incorporating street art and graffiti, the film sparks dialogue about art’s role in society. This innovative approach transforms waste into priceless commentary, challenging viewers to reconsider their surroundings and the nature of creativity itself.

From a series of animated films set to classical music.

The film is an illustration of Wanda Chotomska's poem "Neon Cow." Panorama of Warsaw. Neon rain falls, creating neon signs on the streets and buildings. The main character, a neon cow, wanders around the city. A drop of neon milk falls and the rain washes away the traces of her walk.

A poetic tale about punctuation marks. Adapted from a poem by Wanda Chotomska. In a certain town, there's a shop selling punctuation marks. On the shelves, in candy cans, are periods, commas, dashes, exclamation points, and question marks. Two men enter the shop – they're buying quotation marks. A girl runs in and asks for dashes. A general arrives to buy exclamation marks. Two market women visit the shop because they need colons and commas for calculations. Poor students come in to buy semicolons to pass their exams. The shopkeeper is left with only question marks, which he "plants" for the poet, who uses them to ask important questions.

Short film based on the poem by Julian Tuwim.

A film miniature set to classical music. Narration inspired by H. C. Andersen's fairy tale "The Little Match Girl". The film's set design uses photographs of the Poznań Castle Cultural Center, whose monumental structure contrasts eloquently with the small, lonely child passed by indifferently by passersby.

A film inspired by the music of Johann Sebastian Bach, created using a combined animation technique. Notes on a staff come to life and, transformed into birds, lead the camera into the interior of Wilanów Palace. Along with the swirling musical instruments, the notes—birds—take their place on the orchestra platform and fill the empty concert hall with music.

A film miniature inspired by Fryderyk Chopin's "Mazurka in E minor, Op. 17, No. 2." A girl sheltering in the Museum during a downpour witnesses an extraordinary spectacle. The paintings, captivated by the music, detach from the walls and begin to dance in the air, while the landscapes of Polish nature depicted within them come to life...
