Multiple scholarship holder of the Rector of the Adam Mickiewicz University . In 2015 and 2018 awarded the title of Personality of Ostrow Culture. In 2020 honored with the "Laurel of Culture". He works in painting, drawing and flake gilding. He is attracted to the subject of the human condition and the aesthetics of the human body. He also reaches out to the natural world for inspiration. "I create a world standing in opposition to the contemporary model of thoughtless reality full of haste and chronic lack of time. An oneiric world in which I blur the line between waking and dreaming. The common denominator of this world is human corporeality in its multiple forms, its fascinating and delightful aesthetics. He analyzes it - sometimes reducing the body to a two-dimensional ornament, a decoration. In search of timeless, universal beauty, he composes images composed of features of many, as in ancient sculptures of Greek deities and heroes - cool, indifferent, strong. Monumental. At other times sensual and sensual, fragile." Award-winner, author of solo exhibitions and participant in many group exhibitions at home and abroad, including: in Spain, France, Great Britain, Belarus, Italy and the United States.
