ŁUKASZ MILAK-KALINOWSKI
born in 1984 in Opoczno.
Painter, sculptor coming from a family with traditions of fine arts. A disciple of his mother and grandmother, from whom he drew his sensitivity and technique from an early age. He graduated from the Painting Department of the Władysław Strzemiński Academy of Fine Arts in Łódź.
He draws inspiration from literature, observation of his surroundings and music. They provide a mental subsoil for his work and nourishment for his imagination. Music plays a special role in the creative process. It is able to trigger deep feelings in him, which translates into creative actions. He tries to reflect elementary emotions like pain, fear, passion or peace. Through his works, he wants to ask questions and encourage reflection. According to him, each viewer sees in them a reflection of his consciousness. The directional spectrum of his work rubs against abstraction, surrealism. A clean sub-painting is like a Tabula rasa, on which he paints just as a sculptor derives a shape with a chisel from a wooden board. In the sculptural field, he creates small forms and applied art. His paintings and sculptures are in museum collections and private collections, Polish and foreign.
