Andrew Bator

My name Andrew Bator, I'm an artist from Poland, a drawer and a painter.
The line is the basic element of my artistic expression and creativity, which especially in drawing, plays an important role.
It's a trace of artistic sensitivity, it determines the contour, creates value.
I'm interested in a line and everything that goes around her. I play line. I'm trying to expand the sphere of lines created on a surface and lines that appear themselves - emerging from the background and co-creating the form.
Just like in the paintings where compiled colors evoke shades of other colors, in my drawings lines are plotted to give the impression of additional lines, and all of this is building an interesting and surprising mirages.
In my drawings and paintings the background is not the surface, on which vividness sensibility takes place. Surface co-creates the work and is one of the elements of creative expression. This analogy exists in the drawings and paintings. This is an area of my fascination and interest.
