Polish artist and graphic designer Sebastian Pytka depicts in his provocative works those aspects of our life that affect us, regardless of whether we notice these changes or not. Sebastian often appeals with metaphors or puns. Its goal is to draw public attention to important issues of modern life.
Sebastian Torture (Sebastian Pytka) is still a student, and his work may be somewhat straightforward, but it still perfectly characterizes the problems of modern life. For him, as a 20-year-old young man, these problems are especially urgent. Sebastian pays special attention to the impact of social media on people's lives, especially Facebook. However, it is quite funny to see how Sebastian creates his works about the fact that Facebook has a detrimental effect on us, and publishes them … on Facebook.
On our website you can also find works by another Polish artist Pavel Kuchinski, who devotes his work to the themes of war, money and politics. He often allows himself to joke (even using black humor) on topics that others hesitate to talk about.

Then, finally freed from the "grave fetters", many Decembrists decided to preserve the memory of the terrible trial. As a result of this idea, "shackle rings" were forged, which today can be seen in museums around the world
