The Hole

Piotr Uklanski

Born in Poland, Piotr Uklanski has devoted himself not only to creating conventional works of art, he also happily indulges in combining different elements and textures with cutting edge subject matter and conceptualization to construct a highly unconventional yet bitingly cold and downbeat spatial sensation.

Uklanski's works can induce an unlimited tension through the simplest lines, which can frequently evoke a strong attraction.
“The Hole” puts into play the physical properties of LED lighting and polished stainless steel. When a viewer looks intently at the work, the interaction between the eyes and the brain can produce a temporary daze as the reflective effects of the light source and mirrored surfaces are used to construct a spatial sense of “unlimited extension,” challenging the viewer's sense of experience and reality.
