The sculpture "Hercules" is an impressive male torso made from white Italian marble and black slate slabs, alternately bonded together with epoxy glue. The monochromatic colour scheme emphasizes the contrast between the materials and creates a distinctive visual effect, highlighting the elegant lines and contours of the form. Carefully crafted details highlight the musculature, evoking the classical beauty of ancient sculptures. "Hercules" is a tribute to strength and elegance, marble, symbolizing durability and beauty, combined with the modern approach of adhesive joining, gives the piece a contemporary character.

Piotr trained in stone sculpture for 5 years in Poland where his training included the tradition of studying and copying the work of the great classical sculptors. On completion of his studies, he was invited to join a company focussed on the restoration of decorative stone features on historic buildings. Over the next ten years, Piotr honed his skills working across Europe helping with the restoration of sculpture created by generations of craftsmen and artists. Throughout this practical immersion in art Piotr developed the skills to envisage and recreate heavily eroded and damaged sculptures in the style of the original artists. Inevitably, his work has been described as ‘cosmetic surgery’ in stone, but more importantly, these skills have led to the development of Piotr’s own artistic style that reflects the flow and harmony to generate reflective and emotional responses and a desire to touch so evident in organic forms.
