Biography
Painter, mosaicist and designer. Studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Poznań (1994-1999). He received his diploma with honors in the painting studio of Prof. Jacek Waltos. He lives and works in Poznań. Piotr Czapracki does figurative painting using the aesthetics of photography and cropped shots. He often juxtaposes two theoretically separate worlds on canvas. Being a kind of memory cliché, the world inspired by black-and-white photography, inherently static and gray, he tries to juxtapose with a world full of life and color. At other times he brightens the entire surface of the canvas and the context and meaningful placement of objects become important. In his works, Czapracki likes to establish a non-verbal dialogue with the art viewer. He poses questions to himself and to us, and his paintings encourage contemplation and the search for answers.
