About The Artwork
"So Long And Thanks For All The Fish" is a last piece of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" series inspired by the book series by the same title. Paintings series was started in 2001 and that particular piece was painted in 2007, but amended in 2015 (addition "pop" aknowledges that fact). Formal structure of my SF series (including "Blade Runner", "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and "Microscope" series) was inspired by concept of Unism by Polish painter Władysław Strzemiński (1893-1952). Painting was supposed to reflect random piece of space and time, suggesting to recipient that there is more of similar, but never the same, matter and energy beyond canvas. Colour palette varied depending on the story behind the piece's title. Other pieces of the series: "Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy" 2001, "Restaurant At The End Of The Universe" 2001, "Heart Of Gold" 2005, "Life, Universe And All The Rest" 2006 Canvas are stretched over frame and painted, so artwork not only do not need a frame - it should not be framed not to limit it's energetical connection with the rest of continuum. As it is older than 10 years and I'm making space for new works in the studio, it is now half of my usual price for that kind of artwork.

Most of the highly celebrated art is about discovering new or commenting on current pressing matters, but my art is about simple everyday willingness to live. I paint because this gives me purpose and joy – it’s like humming nice song for a hundredth time, even thou there were many covers before; preparing favorite drink for a friend and myself, to enjoy it again in a new glass perhaps; dressing up for no occasion, just to look and feel good; caressing a lover… I wish it was the same for recipients of my art – everyday pleasure in experiencing it. Like a book that you red many times, yet you still reach for it; dish that you always order in that place that is there forever... Repeatable, often classic topics; favorite color palette; small and big things that makes us want to live, even thou world can be such an ugly place. I want my art to make it better - even for a moment, even in a tiny way. I want it to remind myself and others that it's worth to try everyday...
