If we ever wanted to score a multiplication or enlargement of our individual beings in the
world known to us, we are left with nothing but making a mark. For some, it would be
begetting offspring; for others, producing an object, a wooden spoon, for instance; for yet
others, creating some abstract forms such as writing or a graphic line (recently, I and MLB
discussed the way a non-literate person regards a painting with words, simply, as simply as
possible put, but is it off-putting or not, I know not), while some others have nothing but their
own skeleton, jawbone, two teeth to leave behind (I beg your pardon, dear Lucy\u2026).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maciek P\u0119cak leaves us with very many, with plenty of tropes among techniques, rare
techniques, rarely found among art creators. The author gives us access to a space literally
cut out from several contexts at once, from the experience of the body to that of the planet,
creating an impression of somebody connecting a commonplace reality with a video game
\u2018space-time\u2019, one slightly \u2018zoomed-out\u2019; of course, when one hangs sculpture-paintings on
the walls and lays them down on the floors, in several rooms, a greater number of
dimensions is being triggered, including those from the land of child wonders, even as
P\u0119cak\u2019s works have a whiff of engineerial mentality!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A stabiliser and, ot once, an engine of \u2018space-time\u2019 in P\u0119cak\u2019s artworks is not so much the
world of colours, but the world of texture (his technique of their creation is the stuff of
legends), the world of texture that is closer to tectonics, structures of ocean beds, as if a
subduction occurred (I\u2019ve run out of common language),<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2026however, their planar structure, that of the canvas, related to painting, has a firm hold on
our thinking on P\u0119cak\u2019s stuff in terms of painting while, simultaneously, their FUNture, their
relief sculpturality (?) diverts us towards the non-imagined, but rather an experienced space,
which in the case of the UFO gallery is multidimensional. Those Peregrinations are situating
us, the viewers, in the perspective of a polygon replete with indentations, appendages, ruts
and carvings combined with unexpected colours and if I hadn\u2019t noticed turquoise, indigo,
umber, browns and greys, I would have had to discern a classic rotting, a multidimensional
entropy, to the ends of the black hole, the other side of the imagined, like some interiority of
the void.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He received his diploma in 1991 at the Academy of Fine Arts in Cracow, Faculty of Sculpture. In his artistic practice, Maciej Pecak most eagerly experiments with the medium of wood, but he also reaches for other materials, such as stone, bronze, metal or non-accidental elements of the surrounding reality. He mainly creates sculptures, reliefs and installations. He is also the author of monumental and sacred sculptures in Hlomcza, Sanok and Krakow, among others. An important motif of Maciej Pecak\u2019s work is the concept of time, aspects of passing, the idea of contemplation, nature and man."}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15136"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15136"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15136\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15139,"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15136\/revisions\/15139"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15137"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15136"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15136"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15136"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ufoart.gallery\/pl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=15136"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
