In this multimedia project, the artist attempts to define the phenomenon of superstition. ‘The exhibition is about our prejudices and the superstitions we believe in and how they affect our lives, how they relate to the luck in the title’, explains Kamil Kuskowski. The artist will be debuting his latest paintings, videos, objects and installations.
