Nubes formales

Forms part of a series of abstract works created between 2019 and 2025. The starting point for the sculptures was a reflection on the semantic load of materials. Although the works originate from a similar shape—a non-obvious, undefined, organic form—each sculpture creates a unique visual event through changes in the materials used and their confrontation with various structural elements paired with this form. Along this axis, both compositional and contextual changes occur. The materials used often make a playful reference to the tradition of sculpture or art history, while also engaging in discourse with the socially ingraine connotations of certain substances. The series results from years of attempts, sketches and works, and serves as a treatise on sculpture and its possibilities. It is constructed through a narrative about a sculpture that changes and evolves over the years and with each new piece.

In May 2022, the National Museum in Warsaw acquired the work Nubita from this series as part of the museum's 160th anniversary celebrations. In 2024, the work Nubita III from this series was included in the Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw (MSN) collection. The works have been exhibited multiple times in galleries across Poland and Europe, and many of them are part of private collections worldwide.
