Biography

I was born in 1991 in Raciborz, Poland. I graduated from Art High School where I got a diploma in metal art. The most important part of my diploma work was a huge sculpture made of steel (Click here to see it) I am currently studying at Art University in Katowice in Poland.

I create painting in sets. This form is closest to me. My paintings are intimate because different private issues influence the way they change. The form outside is universal. Paintings are created for a long time and often differ from the intended vision. The picture is not a recording of one moment, but it records a period of time. Because they are recordings of my experience, they are closer to a film than to a photography.

I like when art meets receivers directly. I organize vernissages where art is not closed in narrow circles, but people are close to people. Because of it I established my own social, independent, unofficial exhibiting initiative called Gallery at Home.
