Karol Dusza was born in Bytom in 1972 and is engaged in artistic creation - wood sculpture. He made his debut in 2000 with a successful exhibition at the Gallery of Siedlce and Podlasie Artists at the Oginskis' Palace in Siedlce. He creates works in the convention of symbolic, allegorical and abstract art. Sculptures of human figures are intriguing, such as the allegory of the unity of man and woman (two branches growing from one trunk entwined in an embrace) or the symbolically depicted eternal charm of femininity in its seductive shapes , both subtle and over-emphasized. The figures are deformed as if dislocated by life, symbolically twisted. Noteworthy are the monumental sculptures, almost dreamlike to be placed in the garden in front of the house. The artist is able to extract the nomen omen "soul" from the material - its shape, grain pattern, resistance and even color by choosing the right preservatives. It is also not surprising that all his sculptures are characterized by great expression. All this makes us see a remarkable sculptor artist.
