From the Sculpture Division
Moebius once said, "I am a nexus of universes. I belong to a class of people - I'm not alone in this- whose hand and eye are antennae, sensitive to a certain type of reality."
I feel like Szukalski is right there with him on that. He's one of a few artists who I feel like are living in a different reality than all of us, and we get glimpses of the universe they inhabit when we look at their work.
It's his sculptures particularly that haunt the recesses of my thoughts. They're human made, yes, but feel like they were discovered in an archeological pit on a long abandoned planet light years from here.
If you'd like to see more and learn more about this captivating artist here's some resources:

There's also a documentary about this guy on Netflix that I'll have to check out one day.
