Michał Misiak
Michał Misiak was born in 1973 in Tarnów. He studied at the Faculty of Painting of the Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow. In 1999, he defended his diploma with honours in the Painting Studio of Prof. Stanisław Rodziński.
Michał Misiak is a contemporary artist who uses the language of geometry. Misiak's paintings act as a kind of impulse generating in the viewer a moment of penetration into the sphere of inner feelings and emotions. The limited means of painterly expression used by the artist are the source which makes self-examination possible. In accordance with the Pythagorean philosophy, which is close to him, he tries to show in his works the true beauty and harmonies perceptible by the human mind only in symmetrical objects.
His canvases revolve around the vibrations of dawn and colour extending and intervening into the surrounding reality beyond the pictorial. The out-of-picture structures with a rhythm similar to electromagnetic waves are the result of the visualisation of the invisible reality surrounding the human being, which reveals itself in the painting and then spreads beyond the frame of space remaining present and activated in the viewer's mind.
