ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The painting shows a man, seated, lifting an empty glass goblet and looking at it attentively. He is elegantly dressed and wears a watch, which could indicate his social position and general standing in life. His philosophical stance suggests to the viewer that the figure is searching for something or does not know what he wants. The unfilled chalice at which the painting's hero gazes could indicate a sense of existential emptiness with which the man is struggling. The general context of the work reveals our nihilistic nature and indicates that people will always be searching for truth and answers, no matter how much knowledge they have about a particular subject. The colors of the painting are based on the brown characteristic of humans and a cold, blue-white background that softens the emotions. The brown layer is not uniform, but once serves as a chiaroscuro layer, inviting the viewer into its dark, gloomy environment. It is worth mentioning that the painting was inspired by the work of Jan Matejko. It was realized thanks to the cooperation with the National Museum in Krakow, which allowed the artist a private consultation in the conservation studio. Thank you to its philosophical character, the painting fits perfectly in offices of various professions, as it stimulates reflection and promotes concentration. It also fits well in salons with an elegant composition, surrounded by family discussions on many interesting topics. Its universal colors will work with both light and dark colors of the room.

My name is Jakub Bujak. I am a young, ambitious and positive artist. I am characterised by a unique style, individualism and above all by a high bar I set for myself. The world, nature and culture are for me a treasure trove of raw materials that I acquire, process and finally use for my own purposes. Feelings, emotions, imagination, intellect. My creative process is not supported by anything in particular. Probably by my subjective perspective, because that has always been with me. My creativity, supported by a unique perspective and powers of observation. For as long as I can remember I have been involved with visual art, it has been an inseparable part of my life and way of thinking. In this way I explore thoughts, feelings, imagination. With this form of expression I speak, shout and whisper. I like to say that I am a man of images, but above all of words. Broadly defined art is not an end in itself. I want to convey the greatest possible style, value and emotions. I do not know exactly how to define that in a sentence, but I certainly know how to portray it with a picture. For me, it's a natural form of expression. Complementary to my ego. I draw inspiration from stimuli, from what I pay attention to. Smell, taste, touch, sight, hearing, intuition. My paintings are eclectic. They vary depending on the project, theme and style I am exploring. "Image - Costume - Space" - The main idea is to represent sadness, loneliness, suffering and alienation in the environment of existence. To highlight the feeling that accompanies the life of a person in situations where he is on his own. The confrontation with the reality with which he is confronted. With a situation to which he has become accustomed, but in which he feels that something is wrong.
