Rafal Stach, Stay with me, 2023.

Acrylic and oil painting on canvas, 80 x 100 cm

Rafal Stach, born in 1973, grew up in a gray concrete block where he began his first artistic "presentations". This place awakened in him a longing for beauty and colors, and that's why art painting and rock and roll are his passion and still fascinate him. The subjects of Rafal's paintings are mainly colorful portraits, as the face and gaze is the place of the strongest emotions, as well as expression. Art, painting and rock have been his passion since he can remember and have always fascinated him. By combining color and form together, he gets unlimited opportunities to create art. He is passionate about contemporary painting and is particularly fond of pop art, illustration and graffiti. He currently paints oil paintings, acrylics and murals. He usually pours his passions onto canvas and paper, but also onto walls. The sources of inspiration for his works are usually the works of photographers expressing in them human beauty, phenomenal nature and amazing architecture. He tries to create images full of feeling and expression. He shifts colors from light tones to darker, more intense tones, and chooses colors and light according to his own feeling and experience, creating paintings at the intersection of pop culture that combine his love for it with a rock visual ethos and its influence. He signs his paintings with Seven as he does on his murals.
