In 2019 she won thenational competition ,,Jutronauci” for artists and scientists creating the future. The competition wasorganized by the newspaper „Wyborcza” and Kulczyk Investments. Yagoshevski  is known as one of the artists at the forefront of new artistic theories and practices exploring the theory of vibration in contemporary art and society.

Yagoshevski creative process is to a great extent based on the notion of synesthesia. That is why theobjects created by Yagoshevski are based on the profound understanding of human nature and deep understanding of the theory of vibration that is around us is one between human- nature -cosmos andis manifested to us in the language of synesthesia.Yagoshevski experiences multiple forms of synesthesia, including : emotions → emotions have acolour Form, texture → main human emotions and thoughts, memory, and everything what we name -personify the human life force. In sculpture it is an imaginative hybrid structure. She most often uses plants, colors, forms-texture in a sculpture→ to create her works of art,whichoften involves attempting to capture, select, and transmit her synesthetic experiences into her sculpture. ,, When I see people, places, or objects I see their colors, these are the colors of theiremotions and thoughts that float above the head, or are inside the person creating a structure on the outside. This is the structure of their main thoughts and emotions which a person is guided by.Humanity has an extremely strong, beautiful structure, and each person is not only separate, but also transmits color information to other people, like a messenger. My most important message to humanity, as an artist and synesthete, is that the color essence of all people on earth strives for love,despite adversity. Because emotions not only have color, but also a mass of heaviness. The heavier the weight of color is, the harder it is to change the emotions of the whole population. The sculptures Ipresent are a symbol but also a study of this interesting subject. Yagoshevski analyzes and transformsthe past achievements in the field of synesthesia.

 

She is studying of art -Giuseppe Arcimboldo, VassilyKandinsky. In the first decades of the twentieth century, a German artist group called The Blue Rider(Der Blaue Reiter) executed synesthetic experiments that involved a composite group of painters,composers, dancers and theater producers. In pop culture she analyzed the film Disney 1940,,Fantasia;, which showcased a combination of music and animation. Yagosesesky Is in dialogue with the modern-day—broadening interpretation of history throughexpanding synaesthesia with a new kind of experience in sculpture, and feeling the emotions and thoughts of the other person through color and shape with almost mathematical precision. She is creating, as in meditation, a map of a person.
