About the Item

Rad Husak, a contemporary process-driven mixed media artist, was born in Poland in 1984. With a Master’s degree from the Royal College of Art, his practice is firmly situated in the expanded field of print. This image is an edition of 5. Through extensive research and experimentation, Husak has developed his own process – defining the technique of pigment transfer combined with paint and hand-drawn elements on paper and canvas. By impressing images onto a variety of media, his work implies movement while referencing the trace itself. In his work, Husak is attempting to bring order into a world that feels chaotic, beauty where there is ugliness. Within his figurative series, the timeless tradition of the nude is inherent. The strong influence of religious art of the Renaissance and High Baroque, with their intricate details, emotional depth and dramatic light, continues to be a source of inspiration. This fusion of traditional and modern create a powerful visual experience that speaks to the enduring relevance of religious art today. The influence of Pop Art of the 1950s and 1960s is also evident in his practice. Husak believes that the fusion of different styles and influences is what makes art powerful and relevant. Long seduced by the ideal beauty of the classical world, Husak introduces us to the muse of the 21st century – a neo-romantic young and lithe man. In the image, we see the glitch - double exposure, the jolt and the jut; a digital imperfection, a stuttering. The translucent edge of one body blurs and melts into the next. Here lies the space created for the viewer’s imagination - it elicits movement, the trace.
