About The Artwork

The painting from the solo exhibition “Baroque, Dopamine and Meteors”, 2020, Vauxhall Palace Gallery, Krzeszowice. ________________ The work is sent together with exhibition catalogs. The artist includes catalogs from individual exhibitions with each original painting. ________________ Cavalier looking through a telescope provides a synthesis of Descartes’ optics: Kepler's theory of vision improved by the law of refraction, Apollonius' discoveries on ellipse and hyperbola foci applied to model paths of light rays in a telescope. The illustration from the ninth dissertation of Dioptrics is placed here in the eyeball presented as a lens. Sight - as Konrad Lorenz taught - is the basic sense of humans and birds. The Cavalier, armed with a telescope, aims far beyond the horizon, while the flamingo stares stoically beyond the picture. _________________ Canvas stretched on a wooden frame. The edges are finished in the tone of the painting. Ready to hang.

In my paintings I try to combine the sphere of physis, sensual pleasure, biology, and colors with symbolic elements evoking ontological and metaphysical meanings. My canvas constitute a mixture of textural and flat painting; Working on paper, I apply various techniques; I also press some parts of my linocuts. I am fond of order, symmetry and classic skills. At the same time, in painting and drawing I use techniques that allow chance decalcomania, grattage, dropping. At the first stage of my creative work I am quick and spontaneous. Then, at the next stages, I tame chaos and introduce order. As a result, my paintings form multilayer phenomenon. The layer of colors, regions of colors interactions constitute the foundation of my paintings. The material layer consists of the specific techniques I applied, textures, and deposits of paints. The layer of represented objects includes figures like woman, boy, tree, rhino. The layer of meanings consists of a story that usually finds no final on the picture.
