Robert Szczerbowski explores the impact of new technologies on culture and the way we perceive reality and ourselves. His works reveal the complex relationship between humans and technology, raising questions about the boundaries of subjectivity and consciousness in the contemporary world.
In his works, he builds coherent, autonomous narrative worlds that transcend established definitions of individual media. He utilizes the aesthetics and language of advanced technologies. In his paintings, Szczerbowski references fractal geometry and biometric facial recognition systems. In his objects and installations, he employs programming languages, transforming their specialized codes into carriers of cultural and symbolic meaning.
