I was introduced to Tomasz Bagiński by a family friend. I found his work very interesting from the start, not just due to the graphical content of his work, but his interesting concepts in his pieces. For example his piece 'Fallen Art' demonstrates a disturbing idea about suicide, but at the same time it delievers an imaginative plot. However, I found the piece 'The Cathederal' to be most effective and interesting one due to the fact that its not based around human lifestyle, its alien. Therefore, a lot more respectable because its clearly took a lot more work and thought to create such a non-fictional piece.

General Information: Tomasz Bagiński (To-mash Ba-geen-skee), Tomek Baginski (born January 10, 1976, Białystok) is a BAFTA Award-winning Polish artist and animator, best known for his Oscar-nominated short movie, The Cathedral (2002). For his newest short, Fallen Art (2004), he received a BAFTA Award for Best Short Animation and Grand Prix for Digital Shorts at Golden Horse Film Festival 2005 (shared with: Jarek Sawko and Piotr Sikora). Bagiński also created cinematics for The Witcher computer game based on the books of Andrzej Sapkowski
