Vintage portrait of ancient Greek priestess Pythia, Malczewski Painting

The Vistulart project was formed to create a series of collaborative works we had in our minds from a long time. There are two of us, Dariusz Plutecki and Dagmara Świrska, a scientific mind and a humanist. We’re both self-taught artists based in Warsaw, Poland. We’re working together as the new media art duo and it is not a secret we’re also a couple in private live. Our passionate pursuit of art was one of the things that brought us to each other over 14 years ago and got us where we’re now. We create the photorealistic and colorful string art works. In other words, we create "paintings" using nothing else but miles of a sewing thread in different colors, types and thicknesses. ONLY the thread is responsible for creating the entire picture. Nothing is painted underneath, we don't use any painting technique. Our adventure with this technique has started over two years ago, with pandemic time. Lockouts and all the stay-at-home orders were an opportunity for us to live for a passion, to concentrate on what we love and start a new chapter. Dariusz spent months creating a proprietary techniques and finally he got us our own working tool. Then it took some more months to consider we’re ready to lay our artworks before the public. We’re trying to explore new areas, being innovative by looking for new subjects. We’re particularly searching for objects no one has tried before in this technique, like iconic buildings or cars, but the main dominant motif in our works is the beauty of a human being. Currently we’re developing new, inspiring collaborations and another exhibits. We hope our art will evoke a pleasant emotions and people will enjoy our string art paintings, as much as we enjoy creating it.
