He lives and works in Cracow. His mediums are painting, drawing and painting installation. He is interested in the moment of transition of photography into painting. He is inspired by images from the world of mass media, especially American advertising and photography from the 1950s. The kind of metaphorical quality he achieves in his works is largely due to the way he paints. He has participated in numerous group exhibitions. Individually, he has exhibited his works at Zderzak Gallery in Cracow, Pies Gallery in Poznań, Galeria Żak in Berlin and Bunkier Sztuki in Cracow, among others.
