Bio and Painting style

Biography

Biography

He was born in 1998 in Donetsk, Ukraine. At the age of ten, he began studying at an art school in Donetsk, and after completing it, he attended a one‑year course in architectural drawing. In 2014, due to the outbreak of war in his hometown, he moved with his parents to Warsaw.


In 2019, he was admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw, Faculty of Interior Architecture. During his studies, he took painting classes led by Andrzej Zwierzchowski and Dr. Tomasz Knorowski, who run the First Painting and Drawing Studio. He completed courses in graphic design and visual communication under the guidance of Dr. Bazyli Krasulak, university professor, and Dr. Maciej Małecki.


In 2022, he defended his bachelor’s degree with a specialization in Exhibition Design and completed an artistic annex in painting and drawing. In 2024, he graduated with distinction from the master’s program at the Faculty of Interior Architecture. At the same time, he completed a textile annex titled Four Elements in the studio of Professor Stanisław Andrzejewski and Dr. Eliza Proszczuk.


During this period, he also worked in design studios and developed his own artistic practice. He creates oil paintings that evoke feelings of sublimity, drama, and intensity of experience. His art carries a strong emotional charge, often guiding the viewer toward an encounter with something greater than everyday life — with what is divine, elusive, monumental, and symbolic. In his works, he seeks a subtle tension between beauty and terror, harmony and destruction.

He also searches for experiences of harmony and calm. He aims to find a relationship between the everyday world and the world of biological microstructures. The relationship between the micro and the macro leads to different experiences, depending on the viewer’s individual perception. He has always been fascinated by the similarity of biological and geological structures to elements of everyday surroundings.


Ideas for paintings often appear suddenly, like freeze‑frames, disappearing just as quickly. Therefore, he tries to capture them immediately in a sketch to preserve their energy and unique character. Each such moment of inspiration becomes the foundation of a work with its own, unrepeatable intensity. For this reason, his paintings are highly diverse.

Exhibitions

He took part in the following group exhibitions:

• Umowa o dzieło, Plac Konesera, Warsaw (2020)

• Młode Pędy, Elektrownia Powiśle, Warsaw (2022)

• End‑of‑year exhibition of works by students of the Faculty of Interior Architecture and the Faculty of Design, Ermitaż, Łazienki Królewskie Museum, Warsaw (2023)

• Exhibition and co‑creation of the installation Jajo na Zamku w Czersku (curator: Dr Karolina Thel) (2023)

• Najlepsze Dyplomy Projektowe Akademii Sztuk Pięknych 2024, Design 32, Katowice

• Prolog — exhibition celebrating the 120th anniversary of the Faculty of Interior Architecture at Pałac Czapskich (2025), Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw

I look for harmony in the quiet meeting of the everyday and the microscopic, trying to find balance and calm within the surrounding chaos.


My ideas appear in sudden flashes, and I catch them instantly so their fleeting energy can live on in my paintings.
