Jan ASTNER

Studied architecture and fine arts in Poland and the USA.

He practices painting, drawing, computer graphics and photography. Recent projects come from the fascination of multisensual perception. Paintings are elements of performances based on the idea of synesthetic metaphors – abstractly combined sensual experiences create individual feelings for each participant.

He exhibited in Europe and the USA as well as he ran a summer authorial gallery in Smogen, Sweden. For 25 years he has been dealing with consultancy in the field of building and managing brand image.

He realises his works in series that combine reflection on a man in relation to the world around him in the age of poshumanism and transhumanism. Using process painting and his own developed techniques in acrylic technology, he chooses the means of expression to present the issues bothering him.
