I’m a self-taught artist born in Krakow Poland now residing in
Chicago. When I start working on a piece I usually pick one seemingly
simple inert image or artifact and place it on a canvas. From there I’m
off on an exciting and intense journey into the unknown arranging
reusable materials like antique photographs,long forgotten letters,
found regalia and giving them new meaning. I also include acrylic
paint, oil sticks, Indian ink, varnish, beeswax, or whatever other
medium I find to compliment and increase the visual acumen of my
work at that very moment! My art is a dialogue between my emotional
state of being; fragments of my memory; dreams; desires (past, present,
and future), and the total unleashing of my imagination. As my work
becomes more complex, it is also becoming more dark, tense, simple, dramatic, playful and unsuspecting. Each piece of work is a universe of tossed out scraps and discarded trinkets….
