About me
Karol Kedzierski (1984).
In 2008 I obtained a title of Master of Arts with Honors from the Academy of Fine Arts in Poland.
Currently I live and work in Karlsruhe, Germany.
My painting is rooted in the traditions of realism, symbolism, and surrealism, primarily focusing on depicting the ambiguity and mood of scenes drawn from the artist's immediate surroundings. The leading motifs are human figures in contemporary settings. The selective choice of elements aims to create a personal, alternative image of the observed world.
