Wojciech Tybler-Kubrakiewicz's work oscillates around the processing of travel memories combined with the experience of everyday life and a fascination with the world of objects from simple everyday objects to architectural elements and sublime archaeological artifacts. He processes objects that are manifestations of human thought and often reduces them to signs incorporated into the works giving the impression of randomness in an ultimately coherent and harmonized work.
