Biographical note
Studied Art History at the University of Wrocław and Painting at universities in Poznań and Wrocław. University professor in the drawing department, he runs a drawing studio, a studio of intermedia activities and multimedia; curator of exhibitions and reviews, and director of the Triennial of Drawing in Wrocław for 6 years. Exhibitions in Poland, Germany, Japan, the United States, etc. Recent research projects were conducted mainly as part of cooperation with Japanese artists.
I work with painting, drawing also implementing site-specific installations and objects. I also practice photography and video.
I am interested in studying the relationship between oppositional phenomena towards each other, on many levels of reality. I teach myself and the viewer to be attentive to the inevitable fact of being manipulated.
I implement projects on the border between two- and three-dimensional space, I use text in building the semantic structure of a work, and I work with a para-document.
