About the exhibition "Phantoms" by Dominik Lejman:

Polish artist Dominik Lejman has been chasing ghosts for three decades. His works combine video images with abstract painting and are populated by revenants, phantoms that blur time and the present. Lejman's art oscillates between revelation and repulsion, fall and elevation, Elysium and dungeon. During the Epiphany season, the apparition time of the liturgical year, she reflects on human existence with humor, doubt and despair and poses questions about presence, responsibility and the experience of the absurd.

For three decades, Polish artist Dominik Lejman has been on a ghost hunt. His works fuse video imagery with abstract painting and are briefly inhabited by revenants and phantoms that blur time and presence. Lejman's art oscillates between revelation and repulsion, fall and ascent, Elysium and dungeon. During Epiphanytide-the season of manifestation in the liturgical year-it reflects the human condition with humor, doubt, and despair, posing questions about presence, responsibility, and the experience of the absurd.
