My primary language is painting. I paint what slowly emerges from the subconscious layers of myself. These paintings are the result of long internal processes, most of which I am not fully aware. To claim I understand them would be arrogant.


My paintings don’t tell a story—there is no narrative behind them. They are a collection of fragments that surface gradually from the chaotic magma of the subconscious. My role is to give physical shape to what seeks expression in visual form. It is a non-verbal message. Otherwise, why paint at all? I paint because there is a need to express something that cannot be spoken. I may try to speak about it, but I will never reach its essence—that essence is visual.

There are organic structures—faces, heads, body parts, bodies, or suggestions of them. Everything is connected, dying, twisted, intertwined, copulating, or giving birth to something. It all comes from within… layer by layer.


If I were to place myself within a historical context, my paintings are most closely connected to Surrealism. I frequently use automatism in my process. I’ve been influenced by the Surrealists, Baroque art, and the Polish artist Jacek Malczewski, whose paintings have always felt close to me.
