Mr Piotr Rogali\u0144ski has been involved in creative work at the intersection of theatre, music and visual arts for 30 years.<\/p>\n\n
He creates \u201csculpture-toys\u201d and carolling props. Based on traditional designs, he also makes decorations and stage sets for concerts and performances.<\/p>\n\n
As he says:<\/p>\n\n
\u201cI currently live in Greater Poland, but my mother comes from the Tarn\u00f3w region and she often told me about carolling traditions and going around with the turon. I took my first steps as a caroller at around the age of 10 \u2013 with costumes I had made myself.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n This is where his current interest in, among other things, creating carolling masks and figures comes from.<\/p>\n\n He creates his works by hand, mainly in wood, leaving the material in its natural state or colouring it with earth pigments or wax. His sculptures are inspired by old designs borrowed from other artists or found in archival materials.<\/p>\n\n \u201cFor about five years, I have also been working on a sculptural project entitled \u2018Nie-zabawki\u2019 (\u2018Non-toys\u2019), in which I try to give folk toys a new meaning by placing them in new contexts. In this way, I aim to make them a living and relevant means of artistic expression, allowing the potential hidden in folk toys to be used in a dialogue with the present day and to address important issues concerning adults.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n In addition to sculptures and props, he also creates accessories for drummers, such as sticks, wires, triangle beaters, and brass jingles.<\/p>\n\n As an actor, he co-created performances at Teatr Studio Czyczkowy and Teatr W\u0119gajty. He leads theatre workshops for young people and people with disabilities. He prepares children\u2019s broadcasts on topics related to folk culture. For several years, he has also played in bands presenting traditional music.<\/p>\n\n He is the author of numerous artistic arrangements for historical exhibitions and concerts, including those at the Museum of Pozna\u0144 June 1956 in Pozna\u0144.<\/p>\n\n He has collaborated with institutions such as the Institute of National Remembrance (IPN) in Pozna\u0144, the Museum of Independence Struggles in Pozna\u0144, Dom Bretanii, CK Zamek in Pozna\u0144, and the Mieczys\u0142aw Kar\u0142owicz Philharmonic in Szczecin.<\/p>\n\n He is a member of the Stowarzyszenie Dom Ta\u0144ca Pozna\u0144. In 2021, he received a scholarship from the Minister of Culture and National Heritage in the field of folk art.<\/p>\n\n Photo: Zielone Oko<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":59368,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"kategoria_wydarzenia":[],"edycja":[421],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
