Jan Baszak, born in Szczecin in 1994, is an artist based between Berlin and Szczecin.
His work blurs reality and fantasy, creating imaginary structures and relationships governed by believably consistent rules. His immersive, figurative sculptures are created from everyday materials, often arranged in stenographic spaces. Growing up in Western Poland, he experienced a sense of not fitting into the privileged world around him. His identity and background pushed him to delve into the rituals of mourning himself trying to find understanding and comfort in it.
