Wakultschik’s work focuses on the interplay between light, shadow, and optical illusions. By leveraging the reflective properties of ambient light, he creates artworks that oscillate and transform with the viewer’s movement. His pieces blur the line between reality and illusion, becoming kinetic objects that invite continuous reinterpretation.
