Act

Doubrawa's artistic practice is cross-media and cross-genre. These include drawing, painting, photography, object, graffiti, installation and in-situ projects. He deals with questions about the creation of meaning in connection with everyday signs and codes. His work moves mainly in the area between language and image.

“Doubrawa is more interested in actions related to form and meaning. This is about (visual) expression, imagery (what message is conveyed by an image, how is it conveyed, and is it actually conveyed?), And how our language is bound to meaning outside of itself. Doubrawa asks in what form we acquire 'our meaning', how this meaning influences the form (and vice versa), and how absurd (or ambiguous) this relationship is in reality. ” (Godart Bakkers, 2017)
