Rafael Kolinski

I am an artist and designer. I practice nostalgic figurative painting and ink drawing. Occasionally, I create unique fabric artworks.
I live and work in Warsaw. I have received several artistic honors and awards, including the Grand Prix from the Operis Artis Gallery and the Franciszka Eibish Foundation at Katarzyna Napiórkowska’s Gallery in Warsaw. My works have been featured in several solo exhibitions and over a dozen group exhibitions in Poland and abroad, including in New York, Barcelona, Geneva, and Berlin.
