About The Artist
KRIS CIESLAK WAS BORN IN WARSAW, POLAND IN 1982 AND AFTER A NUMBER OF EXHIBITIONS IN PARIS, ROME, MILAN AND WARSAW HE NOW RESIDES IN LONDON. CIESLAK ONLY REMEMBERS ALWAYS HAVING HAD A PASSION FOR THE VISUAL ARTS.
SINCE 2004, CIESLAK HAS DEVOTED ALL HIS TIME TO HIS ARTWORK, WHICH INCLUDES PAINTING, SCULPTING AND CERAMICS. HE HAS DEVELOPED A UNIQUE PAINTING STYLE THAT IS CALLED "STRIPISM", WHICH DEMONSTRATES THAT IN ART THE ONLY LIMITATIONS ARE THE BORDERS OF OUR OWN IMAGINATION. CIESLAK HAS CURATED AND MANAGED NUMEROUS ART EXHIBITIONS AND ART EVENTS IN WARSAW, PARIS AND LONDON, AND HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH MANY TALENTED ARTISTS.
HIS ARTWORK CAN BE FOUND IN COLLECTIONS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.
KRIS'S BIG LOVE IN LIFE IS PEOPLE: “I CONCENTRATE ON INTERPERSONAL RELATIONS, SELF-IMPROVEMENT, INTROSPECTION AND UNDERSTANDING OTHERS, AND TRANSFER WHAT I OBSERVE TO MY PAINTINGS. I FOCUS PRIMARILY ON THE CONSTANT STRIVING FOR PERFECTION, BOTH PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL, THE BEAUTY OF THE BODY, EROTICISM, AND ON CAPTURING THE VARIETY OF EMOTIONS HIDDEN IN EVERY HUMAN BEING WITHOUT MORALIZING OR POMPOSITY.”
KRIS CIESLAK’S ‘IT’S ART BECAUSE I SAID SO’ SERIES IS INFLUENCED BY THE CURRENT ‘MONEY DRIVEN’ SITUATION ALL OVER THE GLOBE. IT NEEDS TO BE POPULAR, BRANDED, EXPENSIVE.
THOUGHT, IDEA, EMOTIONS WHERE ARE THEY? WHAT MAKES IT REAL? AND MOST IMPORTANTLY WHAT MAKES IT ART?! IS IT REALLY ‘BECAUSE I SAID SO?!’
