Marek

Chlanda

The work of Marek Chlanda should be perceived as a kind of theatrical performance happening in front of our eyes. One element stimulates each next one, which activates a kind of the aforementioned "happenings" that animate inanimate objects.

The value of a drawing is influenced by the artist's observations and observations necessary for its creation, which mainly refer to more or less complex interpersonal relationships. Any tension or relaxation present in them is shown only in an allusive manner. The immateriality of feelings, time and thoughts is an interesting medium for Chlanda because of the opportunity to show their metaphysics, the embodiment of which is enabled by the dialogue between drawing and sculpture.
