TYBEX
Associated with street art since the late 1990s, he works mainly in Warsaw's Ursynów district. There he came into contact with the beginnings of Polish graffiti, an energy that inspires him to this day. In 2010, he received a Master of Fine Arts degree from the Painting Department of the European Academy of Arts where he gained the basics of the academic workshop under the tutelage of esteemed Polish artists including Franciszek Starowieyski. In his works in public space, spatial context plays an important role for him. His workshop is based on figurative art while his main interest is physiognomy and human behavior. He is the author of solo exhibitions at V9 and Kwiaciarnia Grafiki, among others. At the Italian House of Culture, his works were exhibited together with the work of Frans Masereel. He co-created the comic strip Pieces 2, winner of the Guiness Award, together with 170 other artists. He has participated in many group exhibitions at home and abroad.
