... Marek Tobolewski''s work continues to entrance and mystify... CiS is the most impressive show of Tobolewski's I have ever seen ... his artistic practice seems to be a never-ceasing journey along a single path, continually striving for new insights and perfections.
- Andrew Cooper-NVA Ed
My practice deals within both the formal process of abstraction in painting today and its historical continuity.
A constant across all my work is the linear thread of connecting arcs of a circle, forever evolving and endless reinvention. I continually return to existing works, adjusting structures and refining each individual flow of a line in an attempt to reveal a balance within movement.
New work in the ongoing Continuum series has been concerned with symmetry and reflection. Rotating and mirroring these linear forms and incorporating portals.
