Michael Slusakowicz

A Polish born artist, Michael Slusakowicz graduated from Camberwell College of Arts with a First Class degree in BA Painting. His work has since been exhibited internationally and he has partaken in numerous art fairs across the globe.

Predominantly creating work on canvas, the artist explores a paranormal mystery in each painting, capturing a split-second moment such as a flicker of light.
Through his imagery, Slusakowicz penetrates the often-obscured side of our modern-day contemporary society, searching for the “pure core of humanity”, our wants and desires.

In his still life works, the artist combines two dimensional ornate backgrounds with brightly hued ceramic pots, playing on the juxtaposition of two and three-dimensionality and perspective. He is interested in exploring colour and mood, changeling the images that appear to him when creating his artworks.

Slusakowicz’s brightly coloured patterns and repeated motif’s tap into his “subconscious dream world both familiar and removed from reality,” allowing the works to interact through their tonality and colour, further urging the viewer to create their own interpretation.
