EXTENDED BIO
Max was born in Poland as 333rd child in small town Swieboodzin.
He choose to live in engineer/politics and business family, not art at all.
During childhood in the whole 80' he lived in communist Warsaw with
declared by polish government "martial law". Police hours, military
on the streets and many times nothing to buy in the shops.
"Intense reality..."
In the meantime during vacation his family travelled by car everywhere
they could in Europe. "We was very lucky, my father was involved in
Alliance of Democrats and we has passports and permission to travel"
In 1990 they moved to Verona in Italy, where Max frequented
ITIS Marconi informatics high school. "Very boring school this is why
i didn't finish it but living in Italy was still big step into the future"
After four years they moved back to Poland. "Big step into the past..."
The next 14 years Max was living in Zielona Gora. Until 2003 he was
involved into family business of cloth production. He was responsible
for fashion design, marketing and opening shops.
The night of 30.03.2003 (with Hawaiian mushrooms, weeds and Bacardi ecstasy pill) completely changed his life. He started to meditate, create art, study religions, philosophy, quantum physics and finish high school. He described this change in "Sex, Drugs & Enlightment" book wrote during his 40 days solo retreat in Ecuadorian mountains at Kontiki farm in 2012.
In 2003 he also left family business and setup his first own business - stainless steel and glass furniture production
all by his design. The moment was not right due to Chinese "invasion" on polish market. He get broke but for couple
of months was using warehouse as his first art studio. He started to create art with all that left from the company.
"That was The Art of Destruction, I was breaking table's glass tops and creating sculpture with pieces of glass.
With the art awakening he understood what was making his heart beating faster - creating art and... new
ideas for business :) In 2004 he met in Warsaw polish sculptor and his first art Master Kazimierz Lukasz Zywuszko.
No warehouse and limited art space in the small studio he was living forced him to focus on painting and drawing.
At the beginning of 2005 he decided to dedicate all time and energy into painting. "I was wondering where i can arrive
by focusing myself completely on art. I didn't care about earning money even i was 110% broke and sometimes
I had 5$ in the pocket or less. I was selling all i could sell and spending all in paints, canvases etc. For more then
3 months i was doing only art and love with my girlfriends, beautiful life. I gone really deeply into art.".
In December 2005 just one day before his initiation in Buddhism Bon he finished Art of Destruction period with Mirror Chair
and painted his first painting God's Eye of "Rainbow Art". He get also proposition to work as freelancer in polish - italian
live translation in shoes production in Poland. "That was great money, i was working 3-5 days a month and the rest was
for me, my art and whatever i wanted to do".
In 2008 he passed exams and was admitted on painting faculty on University of Zielona Gora. And guess what?
Yes, he quit this and gone to his first six months travel - Mauritius island (3 months), Teneriffe (1 month), crossing Atlantic
on sailboat (1 month), Ecuador (1 month).
After return to Poland he had his first collective exhibition "13 vacant place in UV" about transforming power of Love. He also made first city action in Łódź by repainting and glittering old concrete sculpture. In December he had his first solo exhibition PornArt in university gallery of Zielona Góra.
In 2010 in the beginning of fall he left to Ecuador for 7 months. He spent some weeks on Ecuador Farm and had first Ayahuaska experience with local curandero. After this deep experience he started to draw figurative with left hand and discovered technique to draw simultaneously with both hand - 60 minutes drawing session. In Vilcabamba he was creating clay sculpure with his clay master Lee Stice.
He came back to Poland for 4 months and left to Italy and Spain. Came back at last day of 2011 and in june 2012 gone for 9 months to Ecuador. In 27th December after 7 days of synchronization (San Pedro, mushrooms, weed) with new ray of light he has second Ayahuaska in the same place ad with the same curandero. Ayahuaska told him that he don't need it anymore. He started to practice to enter Aya reality without the plant.
In January 2013 he painted first 4 paintings of LoveLand series. "After i created the first one i was really excited and was waiting until will be dark to see the painting in black light. It was amazing, finally i get the result i was looking for since i started to paint in 2003". After his birthday on 28th february he made 7 days project in Vilcabamba and exposed 333 pieces of his art - painting, drawings, sculpture. He also repainted in white with golden glitter Monument of the mother in Vilcabamba.
In march 2013 he left to visit first time USA. He spend soem time in Miami, Key West and San Francisco & Silicon Valley area. After 4 months in USA he gone to Holbox island in Mexico. Artist Island. On 9th of July he started project to document his life for at least 40 days. "This island is amazing there is only one horrible thing - mosquitos and small flyes chaquiste"
