Piotr Michnikowski
Sculptor (graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts Warsaw 1985).
Works mainly in intimate sculpture, most often in bronze and ceramics, also combines various other materials. Favorite and characteristic feature of his work are multicolored ceramic reliefs realized on the basis of his own glaze recipes and firing techniques, as well as interactive spatial forms referring to music, called instruments by the author. The complexity and non-repetitive use of multiple techniques and material properties, such as sound, weight or fragility, for example, in a single work, elevates it to a means of expression. The multifaceted and multifaceted nature of his work, both in the realm of meaning and in the visual realm, is by definition, as he says, an image of the complexity of human life.
He has had many solo and group exhibitions, as well as the realization of sculptures, medals and projects, functioning in public space.
