BIO
Transmedia artist, posthumanist, dark ecologist, nomad. Born in 1996 in Olsztyn, he graduated from the Faculty of Painting and Drawing at the Magdalena Abakanowicz University of Arts in Poznań. Other forces guiding his early creative development include nature, rural artists and outsiders and the aesthetics of eastern cultures. He presented his work at the International Symposium of Contemporary Sculpture – 2024 Nature of Matter – Matter of Nature. He is fluent in drawing, imagery, objectivity, performativity and digital media. He observes Zoe and Bios and searches for mystical mysteries in them and intertwines them with the world of scientific knowledge. He is interested in the phenomenon of 'memory carriers’ and therefore collects non-human artefacts and matter from non-human worlds. He grows proprietary organic matter, intertwining its existence with works of art. He conducts field research through sensory anthropology intersecting with artistic practice. He explores the regenerative potential of fairy tale and myth. He considers empathy and metaphor as tools to explore the mysteries of reality.
ARTIST'S STATEMENT
A central point of my creative work is the search for a matter and places in nature or on the periphery of the human world. I search for inner states through experiencing them and the images that I try to convey through contemporary art. I believe that the individual is like a receiver, whose moods, perceptions or dreams respond to the collective tensions and narratives of the contemporary world. I try to develop creative forms and events so that the viewer’s experience can be transported into a fairy-tale-mythical dimension (’as if’). I find it particularly interesting to listen to the found space and cooperate in a living relationship with it. I believe that skilfully interweaving archetypal qualities with contemporary discourses can be a form of exploring the invisible and uncertain in our world. I work with the regenerative qualities of myth, arche, memory and the relationship with non-human Others. I try to look deeply and sensitively at the beings, objects and phenomena around me – especially the simple, everyday ones like a branch, a seed or a piece of old board. Perhaps this chronic need to ask myself unanswered questions has led me to grow biological life in artistic objects. I tempt to surround myself with non-humans and matter that has a soul is my resistance to the depletion of everyday life and technocratic ways of living.
