A FEW THINGS ABOUT THE ARTIST
1. What do you do when you’re not making art? (Day job etc...).
My whole life is connected to art. I am an art historian. I run the city art gallery Galeria Kameralna ATElier Kultury in Jaworzno (Poland).
2. Why do you make art?
Making art is an internal need. The research I conduct on the world, especially optics, is the subject of my art. My work reflects my seeing of the world.
3. What inspires you?
I am inspired by the mechanism of the human eye and how it deceives our perception.
4. What/who are your influences?
The world.
5. If you could meet anyone dead or alive who would it be?
I would like to meet Pablo Picasso. When I was 11 his sculpture “Bull’s head” opened my mind on art.
