More and more people are admiring what I am doing and my artwork. Nevertheless, admiration is not the aim in itself of my artistic activity.
Sometimes I possess an ambivalent approach to my doings. On the one hand, I do not do anything special. I take a camera and go out to try to find a unique picture in my mundane surroundings. I am walking, observing, analyzing, contemplating, and taking photos. When some new ideas come to my mind, I write and save them on my iPhone. Indeed, the iPhone serves me as a notebook. Later on, when I take the laptop in the morning, I return to previously written ideas (which I call “inspirations”), and I move my thoughts to the virtual paper. Then, I am mixing both images and texts on this website. Profile on Instagram is a supplement for all my doings. I do my best to do all these things regularly.
If we look at my doings from an earthly, mundane perspective, we notice that these activities are ordinary doings that most of us also can do daily.
We cannot compare my activity with skiing downhill from the K2 mountain, which Andrzej Bargiel run in 2018. There is no such bravado in my movements.
On the other hand, when I look at pictures and read what I wrote, I know that these artworks are unique things. Not everyone notices many odd, creepy, and bizarre things in our surroundings as I do. Also, not everyone can write daily in a non-mother tongue language. That is why I possess ambivalent feelings while I hear applaud regarding my artworks. I love to listen to that, but I know that I don’t do anything special. But, I also know that simultaneously I make unique art.
To summarize, I want to stress that admiration is a beautiful thing (especially for an artist). Nevertheless, it is not the main aim of my artistic activities.
