Blow

2025

A cascade of glazed porcelain fragments suspends the sensation of a single exhaled breath across nearly two meters of vertical space, transforming Krzysztof Strzelecki's *Blow* (2025) into one of the most physically commanding works the Polish-born artist has produced to date. The scale is deliberate, pressing the viewer into an almost bodily reckoning with a gesture that is ordinarily invisible, weightless, and gone in an instant. Strzelecki's command of the medium refuses its conventional associations with delicacy or decorative restraint, instead harnessing porcelain's reflective glaze to catch and redistribute light in ways that animate the surface differently depending on the viewer's position in the room. Strzelecki has built a practice around the materialization of ephemeral phenomena, and *Blow* represents a particularly refined articulation of that inquiry. The tension between the fragility of the ceramic body and the implied force of the breath it encodes creates a productive unease, one that keeps the work from settling into simple formal beauty. Collectors will find the piece rewarding over time, as shifting daylight conditions continuously alter the tonal range of the glaze, giving the work a living quality rarely achieved in fired ceramic at this scale. Signed by the artist and presented directly from Anat Ebgi, *Blow* arrives at a moment of growing institutional attention to Strzelecki's output, making this a meaningful acquisition for any collection focused on the intersection of material mastery and conceptual rigor.
