Paweł Bienkiewicz (b.1962 Milicz) | 4807

Paweł Bienkiewicz creates abstract works. These are analog paintings - painted on paper or canvas, as well as digital works. He is fascinated by all issues that define our existence in the universe, both material and mental. His works feature motifs of space, interdimensional transitions, waves, vibrations, transformation of energy and matter, contrast of light and shadow, tonal play of colors and symbols. In his paintings, he tries to capture the beauty of momentary states of matter and its changes. It is a kind of photograph of what may escape our attention and will not happen again or lasts, still invisible but inherently true and real. In analog works, he imitates nature, deforms the canvas before painting, paints the momentary deformation and then returns to the form of a plane, creating a picture ready for framing. In his digital works, he consistently develops his own technique, which he calls HYBRID PAINTING. In this technique, a painting is often created first on canvas. It constitutes a matrix for the further creative process, based on photographic collage and digital painting. The result is a digital work that is not a literal photograph of the matrix but a digitally modified alternative. In this way, the author wants to create a reference to the possibility of functioning of every aspect of our reality in other, parallel universes. The works created in this way are ready for publication as a file or print in archival quality in limited editions. The matrices used become individual works of art or are subject to further modifications. His masters are: H.R. Giger, Victor Vasarely, Zdzisław Beksiński. Paweł Bienkiewicz uses the pseudonym "pablo" in his works, wearing an elliptical logo. Message: let's abandon limitations and start a journey into the unknown together.
