Artist statement:

My art comments the world of the 21st century.
I am interested in modern technologies and their impact on mankind.
I love science and follow the latest discoveries.
I am watchfully observing the recently resurrected space race.
The computer is my faithful friend that I know, understand and respect.
My protagonists think by means of algorithms.
For me human is an endangered species,
and the current Superman is called Elon Musk.
I like precision, cleanliness and clarity of the message.
I'm not romantic, I'm emphatic.
This is not painting from the world of our grandparents,
you are looking at art from the world of your grandchildren.

And a bit of my biography.

I am a Polish artist living and working in Lodz, Poland,
member of ZPAP - Polish Association of Professional Artists, painter from the Oscar niminated "Loving Vincent" film - world's first fully painted feature film produced by Breakthru Films and directed by Dorota Kobiela.
Main theme is humans vs. technology.
Favourite media: oil on canvas, watercolour pencils.
