The long held vision that finally came into realization. It was built over three years and is in fact three chairs. Each time you turn it, or rather flip it over back or forth, you get another chair. It is the result of a search for the consistency of form in the diversity of functions. It is sculpt...

Sculptor, designer, constructor, musician. Free mind. A rare blend of visionary and creativity with technical intuition. Self-taught. He grew up in Warsaw and Rome, and this is when he made and implemented his first goldsmith, graphic and photographic projects. As a teenager he attended an art school in Rome for some months, yet, he kept back his comprehension of Italian to follow an individual study programme which basically comprised drawing architecture and sculpture around the ancient city. After several months that he spent drawing in the streets, he realised he was not frequenting school at all, anyway. That is when he quit formal education for good. For what he took, he realized totally – like he complemented his musical development by producing percussion instruments. He began working in wood with 'lace' work and making copies of the collection of 18th-century wooden spoons. Soon after, he forged two supernatural lions in sandstone. He designed and commissioned his first furniture pieces at the request of a restaurant and only then uncovered his fascination with design. He re-immersed in the harmony of Roman architecture for a time, and left again to run a design studio and a furniture label of his own in Warsaw. His first secret atelier he would spread afterhours in a student studio, with a kind and quiet consent of the dean of the faculty of sculpture. Over the years, he has been involved in creating figurative sculpture and collection figures, mechanical SFX prototyping and production, cooperating with scientists designing and constructing experimental systems. He has ceased to count, he has already released into the world probably more than two thousand objects of his own design: furniture and other elements of decor, from jewellery pieces to staircases. He still walks his own ways, avoids direct inspiration and seeks his own means of expression. In his world, there is no place for physical limitations. Hence, he develops technologies that become his tools. As someone once said, the matter succumbs to his whims. And Wojtek still improvises in music and sculpture. He lives in the constant joy of creation. In conviction about the unlimitedness of the mind. And in the growing conviction that it does not matter what a person does, but for what reason and for what purpose.
