destrosoftLuty (February), acrylic on canvas, 135 × 155 cm, 2022.
As I described in previous posts, my paintings from the series "Digital Practices of Avoiding Painting" aimed to depict the relationship between humans and technology, as well as the virtual world. Using the medium of painting, I wanted to portray contemporary life occurring simultaneously in both the material and virtual worlds. In this painting, I depicted a scene in which a group of my friends gathered around a computer – the central point of the room – to work together on music. I took this photo during an intriguing event, an online concert streamed on YouTube due to the closure of many clubs during that period. This event strongly left an impression on my memory – a group of people, enthusiasts, who create music, which binds this community together. I felt wonderful being part of that group. The person in the center is Szymek, someone I collaborated with a lot on audio-visual projects. We created our own visual universe, which, despite the end of that relationship, I continue in my own direction.
