For the last six years Artur Lyczba has been experimenting with soft pastel and ink on different types of paper in a process of self-exploration. Technique plays a secondary role and allows him to express himself through the changing images as they reveal themselves on paper.

Works in the exhibition Training the Eye were joined by this common theme. Lyczba’s mental state plays an important role in how works are developed with an aim of achieving flow, where his self dissolves in unity with the moment.

“The sculpture is already complete within the marble block, before I start my work. It is already there, I just have to chisel away the superfluous material.” - Michelangelo.

Taking this approach Lyczba’s aims bring into existence an image which has been waiting to be seen.
