"Dominik Wozniak's work oscillates on the border of symbolic expression, a combination of drawing and painting continent, how charac teristic for expressing the idea of timeless beauty. Taking into account any imperfections that may exist, before, during or after the creation of a given work. Desires showing the relationship, between man and nature are part of the program of this art. The leitmotif for the initiation of Art of the present time, one that provides an opportunity to breathe, in the face of the chaos of today, as well as to feel or reflect on one's own life, are symbolic and allegorical actions. These activities are crucial, because they are part of the patriotic process and are used in projects for purely spiritual renewal, of any living organism. As you know (symbol - allegory), can be understood broadly, so individual associations should appear. Through which a given work of Art, becomes an impulse for the viewer, both positive and negative for further personal development."
