Lot 296:
Embarking on a visual odyssey through my abstract art, a homage to my recent sojourn in Portugal, The canvas pulsates with the very heartbeats of the landscapes I wandered-sun-drenched and brimming with the symphony of botanical fragrances. Each stroke is a whispered memory of chance meetings; human connections personified as art forms that harmoniously shape the entirety of this composition. Gratitude fills me for the boundless inspiration this expedition has unveiled. I was born in Poland and live in Manchester, UK.I have been intimately connected with art since my earliest days, thanks to the influence of my parents. They introduced painting into our family home, filling it with the scent of colours and creativity. There has never been a more natural way to communicate and express myself than through art. My initial foray into this realm began in Olsztyn. While studying landscape architecture at the University of Warmia and Mazury in Poland, I had the opportunity to cultivate my design and compositional skills amidst the embrace ofplants and nature, which brought me tranquillity and solace. In the capital of Warmia, I collaborated with the Rynek Art Gallery and the Olsztyn Cultural Center.As an independent listener, I enjoyed painting and art history classes to broaden my knowledge. Actively involved in the city’s cultural life, I participated in exhibitions and vernissages. After obtaining my degree, I decided to direct my path toward Warsaw, where I embarked on studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Poland. Under the guidance of Professor Leon Tarasewicz, I honed my craft and sought means of expression that resonated with me. Tarasewiczemphasized that harmony between the artwork and the artist’s personality is paramount in painting. Like him, I began with symbolic representations that gradually evolved into abstract forms, a journey that allowed me to consciously perceive reality through the prism of my accumulated experiences. Within the realm of paint, I find myself drawn most to colour and the intuitive nature of the creative process. I enjoy painting in complete silence, fully connecting with my inner self, re-experiencing emotions, and rediscovering creative energy. My inspiration stems from nature, people, and self-exploration. Continuously seeking ways to extract and immortalize myself on canvas, my paintings vividly portray the human personality’s complexity?or the layered essence. Successive layers of paint interpenetrate, creating unforeseen blotches and dynamic lines. Like paint on canvas, our experiences, layered upon one another, shape our final selves. Moreover, I collaborated with Teatr Buffo in Warsaw, Poland, as a costume designer and scenographer. Upon relocating to Manchester, I delved into creative departments as an artist painter, photographer, and mock-up artist. I conducted numerous workshops for children and adults. My artistic endeavours have always been geared toward fostering creativity and imagination. Manchester 100x100cm acrylic painting on canvas
