Transdigital Sculptor Artist

Born in Prague, former Czechoslovakia, in 1984. Graduated from the sculpture studio of the Academy of Arts, Architecture, and Design in Prague in 2011. After graduation, he started working in the entertainment industry, during which he still devoted himself to free artistic creation.
The formal aspect of his free sculptural work has been changing throughout his life. From abstract works built on products of nature set in public spaces to works created from synthetic materials that have recently been strongly anchored in figural realism.
From the content perspective, his current work can be classified as decadent and symbolist, and from the formal point of view it fits in the categories of realism and pop art.
The way he constructs the figure and plinth refer to the tradition of classical figural sculpture, and his works sometimes resemble heroic dioramas in their form. However, current technologies dominate the methods of processing. The author creates with an eye for detail and an emphasis on the complexity of the whole.
The presence of narrative is essential to his sculptural work. In these stories and genres, Paul often and with pleasure moves between multiple possible interpretations and his means of expression tend to be controversial. It encourages us to constantly reflect on where the boundaries of acceptability lie between the freedom of artistic expression and social ethos. It is often necessary to read the sculpture from all sides to recognize the conveyed content.
“Sometimes I suffer from the feeling that people have stopped valuing life, displaced death, and even stopped appreciating the things they produce or consume. We abandon wisdom to satisfy our own pride and throw ourselves in solitude instead of mutual joy. At the expense of experiencing the present, we have recourse to the idea of surviving in the future.”
In his portfolio, there are 24 group exhibitions, 2 solo pop-ups, 14 public art realizations incl. site-specific projects as well as many commercial realizations.
