Jakub Pasierkiewicz

  • Born in 1980 in Poland and Jakub Pasierkiewicz graduated from the University of Silesia with a Masters in Fine Arts in 2005. 

    His main passion is painting and drawing but he has never lost his interest in the medium of photography, which in some sense, is an essential accomplishment of his artistic language.

    Jakub use his camera to transfer and materialise the emotions which develop in his mind, the excitement caused by encountered reality. Sometimes the photos can abstract from reality, showing different aspects of colours and forms, whereas other times they can simply reflect certain situations taking place in front of his camera.

    Since he moved to England in 2006, he have exhibited his works mainly in Europe, India, US and Canada which include: Foto Festival Schiedam (Netherlands), The Lenzburg Photo Festival (Swiss), Head On Photo Festival (Australia), Kolga Tbilisi Photo (Georgia), The ING Discerning Eye (UK), PABA International Photo Competition (Pakistan), NOA17 (UK), Hiii Photography (China), The Indian Photography Festival IPF (India), Berlin Foto Biennale (Germany), MIFA Photography Awards (Russia).
