ARTIST STATEMENT
I hunt endlessly in the nooks and crannies of my subconscious, the arsenal of infinite ideas. Carving the most detailed shapes, I make shapes into vectors, showing the way. I follow my instinct going by importance and listening to reason. Until all that remains is my own being and the world I create.
The space that is all mine of which I am aware. The devil’s in the detail structures and shapes. Resembling nothing from afar. From closer which the pieces of the soul emerge.
I am an artistic soul through and through. Trying to carve out my own space in these modern times. I feel the constant pull towards new ways of creative expression. At the same time striving to make things that will ultimately prove useful. In my mind graphic design and art proper meet in painting and illustration my preferred ways of expression.
Realism is of little interest to me. Or rather what is considered real in a world obsessed with imitation appearance over substance. The time I spend on an art piece I spend trying to make it uniquely mine. Trying to give it what makes me me.
This is how I escape pressure of technical excellence. Knowing that the focus and devotion I give will shine through my art making it worthwhile. Looking for inspiration I look until I can no longer see the obvious. Only when I stop trying to notice every detail the image emerges.
This is where the idea of PLANET RECYCLED ART. Comes from the multitude of impulses all equally fascinating and intertwined. Can become real thanks to various techniques I find liberating as an artist. All my ideas I put down on blank page, then design. By creating a clean canvas for my art, I escape the mundane reality.
„Buszuję nieustannie w szufladach własnej podświadomości i świadomości nieskończonych pomysłów. Długotrwale dłubię najmniejsze kształty, geometrią nakreślam kierunek. Instynktownie, niepochopnie. Świadomie. Istotnie. Czując. Istnieję wówczas tylko Ja i Mój świat. Moja Przestrzeń. Moja świadomość.
Sedno tkwi w szczegółach, strukturze, kształtach. Z oddali plamy z bliska kawałki porozbijanej duszy. Niezliczone fragmenty pokaleczonych uczuć, zdeformowane marzenia.
Oscyluję pomiędzy świadomie zniekształcaną formą a dopracowanym szczegółem, identyfikując się z daną formą i przestrzenią w której ją osadzam. Próbuję w nieoczywisty sposób odzwierciedlać to co zastane i wciąż uobecniające się. Częściowo chcąc to zamaskować częściowo odkryć.
Mnogość fascynacji zmiksowanych i przenikających się wspólnie może urzeczywistniać się dzięki realizacji poprzez różne techniki które dają mi wolność działania. Notuję pomysły, projektuję. Uciekam od oczywistości tworząc sterylne podłoże twórcze dla własnej pracy.”
Prawdziwy sens obrazu, polega na odzwierciedlaniu czegoś co jest nieobecne, co zatem może istnieć wyłącznie w obrazie. Obraz wydobywa na jaw to, co w obrazie nie istnieje, ale co może się zjawiać tylko w obrazie. Hans Belting
