Jardan presents Henryk ‘Bold Strokes’ Exhibition

With a background in fashion photography, Lobaczewski channelled his creative lens into painting contemporary abstract works inspired by colour, thickness of paint and texture of stroke.

Having worked closely with Jardan on colour collaboration, Henryk has created 19 unique pieces of art that showcase his love of colour, texture and pattern including Jardan Blue (pictured above).

Characterised by bright and bold hues and an intuitive approach to his craft, much of Henryk’s inspiration is drawn from the tones and colours found in the pages of fashion magazines, making him the perfect collaborator for an innovative brand like Jardan, who’s design ethos is consistently ahead of the curve.

This exhibition will be available online at Jardan.com and to view in store until the 25 May.

“I’m in love with colour & texture and the whole gestural nature of freezing form. It makes me feel enlivened, and in the minute. Everything in this world is so ephemeral and it’s nice to freeze that. That moment. Then be able to feel it forever on a wall” - Henryk Lobaczewski.
