Jewelry by Tomasz Stangrecki - It does not evoke associations strictly with jewelry - in the commonly accepted sense of the word - smooth, shiny decorations. It can be more appropriately called anti-jewelry, or micro sculptures with the function of jewelry with brutalist, raw forms.

Creative searches take place in the field of FORM - or its absence (inspired by the art of Henry Moore - form is also there where it seemingly does not exist), SPACE, ARCHITECTURE, FACTOR - or its absence...

The artist now allows himself to look for and choose CONTIGENCY in art (not randomness). Each work is one-time, unique, special and is a kind of personal AMULET for both the Creator and the Recipient.

Inspirations and fascinations - biomorphic shapes, modern and Bauhaus architecture, prehistoric art - hence the impression as if the objects were artifacts obtained from archaeological excavations with typical maceration, or referred to the rock engravings of Altamira or Lascaux.
