Pawel Porada (born 1985), Awakening, 2022

Acrylic, oil, canvas, 100 x 80 cm, signed l.d.

Currently lives and works in Belgium. Graduate of the Faculty of Art at the University of Rzeszow, where he received his diploma in the painting studio of Prof. Stanislaw Bialoglowicz. He does easel painting, drawing and printmaking. The main themes of his paintings are portraits, which he juxtaposes with various elements in an ambiguous way. He draws inspiration from observations of people, their behavior, problems, dreams and everyday life. In his works, the artist combines strong patches and definite shapes. In painting I seek simplicity and harmony, as well as individual values. His works can be found in private places at home and abroad.
