Tomasz Dobiszewski Visual artist, he graduated Academy of Fine Arts in Poznań, he obtained his diploma in the Intermedia Photography Studio under the supervision of Krzysztof J. Baranowski and Stefan Wojnecki, phD at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts in Wrocław. Since 2019 he is an assistant at the Media Art Department.

He received, among others, Jerzy Grotowski Scholarship for achievements in the field of art (2017), Scholarship of the Minister of Culture and National Heritage (2012). The artist’s works belong to public collections in Poland and abroad, as well as to private collections. He formulates an artistic statement using photography, video, animation, multimedia and site-specific installations, mail art or art books. In works, which are evidence of the processes of artistic taming of the media, he does not stop at purely conceptual cognitive strategies, but enriches the discourse with non-intellectual elements, such as sensual impressions and intuitive cognition. He experiments with a new tools not only to realize works with a result predictable for that tool, but tries to shift the emphasis to the periphery of a given method and use the inherent, although not basic, properties of devices and technologies, often more interesting and not obvious. Recently he has been focusing on visualizing phenomena that are impossible to perceive, which not only broadens our knowledge about the surrounding world, but also deepens our imagination. www.dobiszewski.com
