“The digital age offers unprecedented opportunities. I experiment as much as possible because I am always looking for new perspectives. It is a challenge to make the impossible visible.”
Morski blends contemporary graphic techniques with classical methods and analog materials. Deliberate imperfections unmistakably breathe life into the surfaces of his works. His artworks possess depth—they contain many layers, both literally and viscerally.
Igor Morski is a trendsetter. His muse and partner Gohna, who appears in many of his works, serves as his inspiration.
