AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Forget everything you know. Cyber Hippo 2.0 is a hippopotamus for a new era—equipped with wings, powered by imagination, and created to break every rule.

Blending the raw aesthetics of steampunk with futuristic details and whimsical fantasy, this sculpture proves that in art, anything is possible. Bold, playful, and unforgettable, it is a collector’s piece that sparks curiosity, brings a smile, and leaves a lasting impression.

I was born on 1975. I’ve been engaged in sculpture since 1998. I would call myself a self-taught, though my work has been greatly influenced by an educator and sculptor, Jacek Kozłowski. Meeting him deserves to be called “the moment” of my life.

In my work I attempt at displaying delicacy, fickleness, etherealness, and motion. Hence, perhaps, a number of my sculptures are disproportionably long – as they become apparently light thus, barely reaching the ground. I strive to avoid limiting myself to one manner of shaping the figures. I like experimenting with proportions and seeking for ever different way of deforming the reality.

I think it’s vital for every sculpture to present a story. First, I have a subject and then I find some shape for it. I believe it’s partially connected with the fact that I’m a graduate from the Academy of Special Education.

I co-operate with art galleries in Warsaw, Copenhagen, Bryrup (Denmark) and Arnhem (The Netherlands), Malmo(Sweden).
