"Out of My Mind" is a synesthetic exploration of a pre-dawn moment, where the sky is draped in cool, deep turquoises. Part of the Blinkered series, Lukasz Olek translates the auditory stillness of a forest—broken only by bird songs—into a sophisticated color-field composition. Working on high-quality linen, the artist focuses on the "honesty of the material," using the natural grain as a foundation for his atmospheric narrative.
His technique involves a meticulous dialogue between vibrant underlayers and muted glazes, often subjected to aggressive scraping to reveal hidden histories of the process. This creates a "quiet" complexity, designed to bring harmony and balance to modern interiors. Olek’s work is held in private collections globally and has been exhibited in London, New York, and Paris. He creates instinctively, often noting that he creates for himself things which others eventually buy, allowing viewers to discover their own unique emotional resonance within the layers.
