Barbara Synak

Barbara Synak is a Warsaw-based animator and illustrator whose work blends graphic design, movement and psychology to creat deeply introspective visual stories. Having graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in 2025 and currently studying psychology, she believes that animation is a medium that can uniquely visualise the unspeakable, such as the flow of thoughts and feelings, and the oftenintangible textures of perception. Her short animation won the main prize in the Chaumont Biennale st dent competition in 2023.
