Between photography and abstract

Piotr Bylina‘s artistic practice is a dynamic interplay between photography and abstract painting. Drawing inspiration from his extensive photographic archive, Bylina transforms the tangible world into ethereal abstractions. His photographs, spanning decades from the 1970s onwards, capture the intricate dance between human intervention and natural processes.

Bylina’s photographs often focus on the environmental impact of human activity and the resilience of the natural world. He delves into the overlooked corners of the planet, exploring landscapes shaped by both human industry and natural forces. These images serve as the foundation for his abstract paintings, where the artist distills the essence of the photographed scenes into vibrant, non-representational compositions.

Through the process of abstraction, Bylina invites viewers to engage with the underlying themes of his work on a deeper level. By stripping away the literal and embracing the abstract, he encourages a more contemplative and introspective experience. His paintings evoke a sense of wonder and mystery, inviting the viewer to connect with the unseen forces that shape our world.
