Filip Konikowski’s project 'Gentleman's Club' was inspired by the
old and new world crossing over into modern day. It represents
how the modern gentleman has chosen to groom himself while
portraying a sense of calm demeanour, strong preserve and
intellectual thinking.
Surrounded by artistic influences from birth, and being a continuous presence in Melbourne’s contemporary art scene for over two decades, inspiration has come in many forms for Filip.
