Behind The Artworks: Źrenice - Śnienie (2026)

The artwork reflects the themes of Śnienie - ambiguity, introspection, and the dreamlike state. It was designed to represent a journey inward, symbolized by entering the forest. The central figure, standing alone among mist, glowing fireflies, and shadowy, surreal creatures, evokes the introspective exploration of oneself. This connects to the album’s opening track, Brama lasu…, which marks the beginning of the journey. The album concludes with a track called…lasu skraj, symbolizing the exit from the forest and the end of the inner journey. Everything that happens between these symbolic entry and exit points: all the struggles, reflections, and transformations, is represented by the path traced through the individual tracks of the album. Like the music itself, the artwork is meant to evoke a feeling rather than present a clear image, leaving space for personal interpretation.
