Robert Kuźmicz (b. 1974) is a Polish photographic artist who regards light as a tool of the
art of the future.
In 2010, as an already experienced photographer, Kuźmicz began working with the technique of light painting. Through this practice, he became not only an observer of reality captured by the lens but also its creator. His work is built upon contrasts — light must be drawn out of darkness. Only under such conditions does the camera, set to a long exposure time, register a frame with a moving light source animated by the artist’s hand. Like a painted canvas, each frame is unique, for every gesture of the artist’s body is unrepeatable
Between 2015 and 2017, he presented his artistic explorations in exhibitions and competitions, culminating in a showcase at the Film Video Foto fair in Łódź (2019). Subsequently, he deepened his theoretical knowledge through courses in photography, art history, interpretation of artworks, and Fine Art printmaking. He returned to the art scene with, among others, a multimedia presentation at the DiasShow during the 10th Foto Art Festival in Bielsko-Biała (2023). His works have been shown at numerous festivals and group exhibitions in galleries in Poznań, London, Venice, Paris, Stockholm, and Gibraltar
In 2024, as the main prize winner of the Open Call organized by the Royal Blue Visual Arts Gallery in Stockholm, he presented his photography in the solo exhibition History of the Universe. In the same year, his work Dead Forest received a distinction in the Annual Photography Awards in the Fine Art: Places & Spaces category.
Through light painting, Kuźmicz seeks to expand the horizons of photography toward a conscious form of abstract painting. In a technique often considered experimental, he perceived light modifiers and the camera sensor as carriers of a new artistic language — one that reveals the world, the hidden reality of our truths and emotions, in an intuitive and universal manner.
In 2024, he began developing the theory of Conscious Abstraction, through which he aims to sow the seeds of a new vision of art. The goal is to describe the world of abstract concepts and dogmas by means of a shared language of science, philosophy, and art, expressed through color and the quantum nature of light.
He lives and works in England.
