Justyna Szpygiel

I am a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw.
I have been chosing …s i l e n c e… as the subject of my paintings for the last eight years in an attempt to grasp what is often a result of meditation or contemplation – the undisturbed inner peace… This silence helps me to find the balance with my inner soul. … get rid off the thoughts, information, noise which invade us constantly every day. It strengthens my concentration, helps to leave the useless matters from our mind and keep only the valuable and inspiring ones. Owing to this wonderful silence we are able to reach the great state of contemplation, the blissful state which soothes our soul, body and mind.
The purpose of my performance is to make this state come closer . By use of the compositions and the harmony of colors I would like to create the state of softening and infect the spectator with it.
My main source of inspiration lies in nature, however what I paint is rather a state of mind than the real world.
