Stanislaw Trzebinski

Kenyan 1992- 


Born in Kenya, Stanislaw spent his childhood escaping the bustle of Nairobi to explore the wilderness of the Rift Valley and the East African Coast. These travels immersed him in the rich heritage of Arabic, African and European cultures, as well as, in the beauty of the area’s biodiversity. Stanislaw comes from a family of compulsive creatives and eccentrics, whose home virtually demands an appreciation of art from anyone who enters the place. His childhood house was a living and learning space that invited artistic contribution as a primary means of self-expression.

Stanislaw's talent was furthered by a high school art teacher who invited him to experiment with a wide range of mediums, from painting, collage, and photography to welding and sculpting. He briefly attended Pratt in New York, where he realised that his creativity was intimately connected to Africa; its nature, and people. In spending his summers diving off the tropical waters of the African East Coast, which is famous for its mangroves, coral reefs, and marine life, Stanislaw found his influence for the symbiotic relationship expressed in his coral / human creations. Trzebinski moved to Cape Town in 2012, to further the development of his career.

He was an apprentice in sculpture and bronze casting. Through this experience, he found his standing as an artist within the South African art market. Stanislaw now works out of his studio in Woodstock.
