Lukasz Jastrubczak is a young artist with a very clearly defined view of his creations. “In my activities everything makes a whole and is interdependent. My inspiration comes mainly from movies. I like air a lot” – says Lukasz about himself. Lukasz is interested in the surrounding reality, in actions in it and on it. The artist observes it through the filter of culture – movies which he remembers, artists who are fascinating for him. In a discreet way he mystifies reality. Simple ordinary situations in a city space are a starting point to create narration, to shape his own quasi-fiction based on objects and minimalist interventions. In a subversive way his stories refer to classical works in cinematography, pop-culture. They are like frozen frames from movies, prolonged in time. Lukasz doesn’t intend to define the role of an artist in society. The meaning of his works are developed in contact with their place of appearing. Jastrubczak doesn’t close his activities; he leaves the situations open. He responds to surroundings. His ephemeral interventions are a break from reality. They make obvious things start to look different than at first it seems.Under the bridge is within the framework of Polska Year! in the UK.
