„- M. Kubiak tells the viewer stories from a world that he existed in for years, far from your average artist environment... Growing up in dodgy public housing, his reality from the start was filled with petty and serious crime, shady characters, hypnotizing nightlife, and insane life stories. Now he takes us on a tour through his imaginary Gotham-like city, where at one point we can witness a cold, down-to-earth scene, just to move next to a symbolic psychedelic-like vision. The heroes of these events are wrapped up in power struggles, love, lust, violence, dopamine rushes, and pain and pleasure intertwine. Through this lens, the artist contemplates a relationship that a person has with themselves and the surrounding world, analyzing what it actually means to be a human being."
