We invite you to the opening of the exhibition ‘’Outside the Mind‘’ by Włodzimierz Dąbkowski, which will take place on January 14 (Tuesday) at 6 p.m. in the ‘Śródmieście’ Community Center in Białystok.
The exhibition will present works full of symbolic meanings, reflecting man’s contemporary confusion and his quest for self-destruction. The artist explores themes of transience and hope, creating an atmosphere of reflection.
– My painting is a story about people lost in a contemporary world devoid of values. Through my paintings, I want to show the reality around us and man’s more or less unconscious drive towards self-destruction. We have been able to be genius builders driving the progress of this world, but the development of the intellect has caused the degradation of our souls and hearts – Włodzimierz Dąbkowski says.

– A very important aspect of my work is the passing of time and its consequences making us realise that there is nothing permanent in this world. In spite of everything, I leave in my works a light of hope for the rebirth of the spirit and a better tomorrow – concludes the exhibition’s author.
