Golden Years is the latest series of paintings by Dawid Czycz, a pictorial story about our present. An era of excessive virtual stimuli. A world flooded with the colourful light from LED screens, where the ability to respond simultaneously to quick messages has become a key competency for survival. And they are a fantasy of our globalized pop culture. It’s an artistic look at the Zeitgeist and lifestyle of today. Probably at our future twenties, too. But everything in its order. And the various threads must unfold simultaneously, like the narrative in Dawid’s paintings.
Dawid Czycz’s art employs the language of emoji and memes, or quick visual messages, which have taken over our digital communication in recent years. And with artistic virtuosity, he has created his own imaginary realm out of them.
