I regularly conduct commercial workshops on artistic mosaic in Pozna\u0144, Krak\u00f3w, Wroc\u0142aw, and Warsaw. My works can be found not only in Poland but also beyond our country’s borders, including at ZEUGMA, the world’s largest mosaic museum located in Turkey.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator sep_color=”” uncode_shortcode_id=”135974″][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=”706580″]In 2009, I co-founded and chaired the “Association of Polish Mosaic Artists,” which was the only organization in Poland uniting creators practicing this rare artistic technique.<\/p>\n
Years of experience in various projects have allowed me to become more daring in mosaic art. In my workshop, I also engage in conservation work, which means restoring the original appearance and shine to beautiful but neglected historical mosaics.<\/p>\n
In 2012, I came up with and organized, along with the authorities of the city of Krakow, the first mosaic action in public space in Poland, where everyone could participate. The action was called “Wyspia\u0144ski on Mogilska,” and we repeated it in 2013 at Rondo Mogilskie, also in Krakow.<\/p>\n
Thanks to collaboration with Pam Givens, in the same year, I was invited to an international exhibition at Clauiano Art Exhibition Gallery in Italy, which resulted in expanding my international contacts in the mosaic world.<\/p>\n
In 2014, the most recent mosaic action in Krakow took place, called “Mehoffer on Mogilska.” All three editions of the event gathered nearly 5,000 active mosaic layers, creating over 180 square meters of mosaic artwork. You can admire the results on the EVENTS page. In the same year, I joined the nationwide “Save the Mosaics” campaign, and through our cooperation, we managed to conserve over 325 square meters of ceramic mosaic (1965) at Kij\u00f3w Cinema in Krakow. In Toru\u0144, in collaboration with the Center for Contemporary Art, we carried out the reconstruction of Franciszek Micha\u0142’s mosaic based on the 1968 design.<\/p>\n
