Michał Cygan
Both the art workshop and the colour play an important role in my work. The Silesia region had a great influence on my paintings. An architecture and people are inspiring for me in particular. Therefore often in my paintings there are Familoks and people who have been etched in my memory because of their bizarre behaviour or some weird situations.
I usually start my paintings with a particular story, which expands in the process with new threads and comments. In my work I try to create my own fantasy world additionally enriched by multiple real life comments.
