oil on canvas, 80 x 100 cm, signed and labeled on the reverse: 'Piotr Paraniak | Last Glance | Sun and Sailboats | 100 x 80 | 2026'
Born in 1976 in Słubice, Lubusz Province. He earned a diploma with honors in easel painting in 2001 in the studio of Prof. Jan Świtka, with a series of oil paintings titled RINGS, as well as a master’s degree in art criticism, promotion, and pedagogy. Since 2001, he has found fulfillment in his new role as a teacher of painting, drawing, and art history. Series such as “Hands” and “Transitions” are imbued with symbolism and spatial depth, stemming from an awareness of the fragility of existence and observations of the surroundings—particularly interpersonal relationships and their connection to eternity. Enriched by his fantastic technique and mastery of painting, these works convey a unique visual effect and message.
