11th COMMANDMENT GET THIS IN TO YOUR HEAD Sculpture

I was born in Jelenia Góra, Poland, and the city’s unique beauty has always inspired my work. From an early age, I found myself drawn to the surreal and the extraordinary, spending hours indoors, sketching and immersing myself in my family's collection of art books. I was fascinated by the works of Salvador Dalí and M.C. Escher—those artists showed me that art could break the rules of reality. Their influence still shapes my approach today. As a child, I remember reading about the world, about the trauma, pain, and suffering. I felt it in my heart, and I knew I had to express that. It was a way for me to process the chaos around me. My world became a cycle of painting and sleeping—painting to understand, sleeping to escape. But through it all, I was searching for meaning, trying to make a difference, to connect with something beyond myself. Over time, my desire to share untold stories grew stronger. I began using my art to challenge the world’s indifference. My street art campaigns in various countries have been a way to draw attention to the stark contrast between Western consumerism and human suffering. One of my campaigns used billboards to highlight the devastating collapse of the Rana Plaza garment factory in Bangladesh, which took over a thousand lives. Another, titled 'Christmas in Yemen,' juxtaposed materialistic holiday scenes with the reality of war and poverty in the Middle East. These images, for me, are more than just visual representations; they are calls to action, reminders that we must open our eyes to the struggles of others. My work has been exhibited in cities like Miami, Warsaw, Wroclaw, Berlin, Rzeszów, and London, and I am grateful that it has found its place in the collections of people like Channing Tatum, Gigi Hadid, and Nicole Scherzinger. One of my proudest moments was collaborating with 5 Seconds of Summer in 2019, where I had the chance to hold a live painting masterclass with them. In 2020, I will take another big step with my first solo exhibition in Asia at the GIN HUANG Gallery. Through all of my work, I strive to weave in a thread of hope. Even in the darkest times, I want to believe that there’s a way forward. It’s important to me that, in every piece, I offer a glimpse of something better, something more human. After all, I believe that no matter how great the tragedy, there’s always room for hope.
