ARTIST STATEMENT
“In this series of etchings and aquatints, I capture human dreams and desires with symbolism and visual metaphors. They are intended to encourage personal introspection. These classic techniques of intaglio printmaking working on metal plates have changed little since the time of Rembrandt.” Leszek Wyczolkowski
