Born in 1964 in Rymanów. Sculptor, lives and works in Kraków. He graduated in 1991 from the Faculty of Sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kraków. In his artistic practice, he favors wood as his primary medium, while also turning to stone, bronze, metal, and deliberately chosen elements of the surrounding reality. He creates primarily sculptures, reliefs, and installations. He is also the author of monumental and sacred sculptures, realized among others in Hłomcza, Sanok, and Kraków. A key motif in his work is a reflection on time, transience, contemplation, nature, and the place of the human being in the world.
