Thomas Misik’s works absorb you into a surrealistic world where space, symmetry, the proportion of forms and light become the sole protagonists of his works and where these puristic spaces emerge as sculptural in character.

His motives are always based on real locations and architectural situations, which the artist a posteriori edits. He changes the motive or the color; removes or adds elements. Light and color are combined in such an amazing way that they intensify the space-oriented character and emphasize the unique vibrancy of the works.

Thomas Misik always searches for the ideal space, the perfect symbiosis of space, color and light. A pure cosmos arises, in which every trace of life is deleted. When our eyes start to travel over Misik’s works, we notice that there is no place for us as human beings. Space as such becomes autarkic and autonomous, the human being is ignored, and an interplay between attraction and distance for the viewer evolves.

Thomas Misik (*1973, Hannover, Germany) studied science of media at the Queens College in New York and architecture at the University of Hannover, Germany. He then studied fine arts at the academy of visual arts in Braunschweig, Germany. The artist had several exhibitions in Europe.
