Rafal Bujnowski likes to make work. He is fascinated by quotidian and
mundane objects such as tools and domestic fittings. By making use of his own artistic ability and referring also to aesthetic signs, the artist creates work by using traditional the artistic techniques of graphics and painting. Bujnowski's primary interest lies within the functional and practical aspects of objects, and while creating their artistic illusions/facsimiles he tries to add these values to art. He treats his artworks like real products that are part of a free-market exchange. This suits his belief in an egalitarian and easily accessible art. “What is the artist to do?” asks Bujnowski.
“The academy is a universal school, imparting manual skills; you can then try your hand at a variety of professions. The most important thing is to do everything thoroughly, to put your heart into what you do. The artist should
beautify his immediate surroundings — this is utilitarian and useful.”
