Adam Malek's prints are personal cycles, having their beginning in certain years. They are not closed. From time to time, irregularly, the Artist adds to them another work bearing a title, nevertheless the threads of each cycle are the same as the initial sign. Domoludki are charming works, they tell ordinary human stories sometimes in a funny and surreal way.
"Domoludki at night" is a beautiful, atmospheric graphic depicting a couple hugging after dark, wrapped in an unobtrusive moonlight, an ordinary scene in Adam Malek's work seems to be a moment when time stopped paying homage to the simple beautiful moments of life.
