About Dominik Wlodarek

 
 
  • Biography
    I am an artist printmaker based in Gdansk, Poland, also working in Helsinki, Finland. The main inspiration for my artworks is the city landscape. I like to show in a bit different way some parts of the city, which people are passing everyday without even noticing…
    In my work series entitled "Reflections" prints are based on the mirror images of the real landscape. All the elements are on the image, but reflected, so some viewers can recognize the places but the reflection causes also some kind of confusion. A reflected image gives an impression of the place in sort of magical and abstract way. It is also strongly connected to the tradition of printmaking, where the printmakers have to prepare the plates as a mirror in order to get them printed according to reality. In my recent prints the motive of windows and interiors starts to play an important role.
