Fruits of Knowledge

Written by Mirek Struzik on 31. August 2026. Posted in Project.

An organic, abstract reimagining of a motif as old as literature itself: the tree of knowledge, reborn at monumental scale. A fantastical sculpture draws on a symbol woven through human imagination from ancient myth to science fiction, transposing the intricate forms of nature from the microscopic to the architectural through biomimicry. Fabricated from stainless steel, the work catches and scatters daylight through its wire-mesh fruits, alive with transparency and movement.
At dusk, a dynamic RGB LED system transforms the sculpture entirely — colors wash over steel surfaces, and what was familiar becomes fantastical, as if a page had turned and the world stepped into the story.

Bubble Flowers

Written by Mirek Struzik on 8. August 2026. Posted in Project.

Inspired by the chrysanthemums the Miaoli region is famous for — and the technology it’s building its future on — Bubble Flowers translates a native flower into the language of stainless steel and light. Mirek Struzik studied the chrysanthemum’s form in close detail, then rebuilt it at monumental scale using electropolished 316L stainless steel, letting the organic structure of the petals guide the sculpture’s abstract geometry.

By day, the piece reads as pure form: a large-scale botanical abstraction rendered in mirror-polished metal, catching and refracting the changing light of the park around it. At dusk, an integrated LED lighting system takes over, and the sculpture undergoes a complete transformation — color moving through the structure the way light moves through a living petal.

The lighting system carries over 10 dedicated thematic programs, each tuned to a different occasion. Tongluo Science Park can activate specific sequences for national holidays, seasonal festivals, corporate milestones, or other celebrations — giving the sculpture a changing identity throughout the year rather than a single fixed appearance.

Bubble Flowers stands at the entrance to Tongluo Science Park, where it has become a daily landmark for the people who work there — present at the start of the day and, in a different form, at its close.

Dandelions stainless steel sculpture installation on Cagliari port boulevard, Sardinia

Dandelions – Cagliari

Written by Mirek Struzik on 8. August 2026. Posted in Project.

Four dandelions, rendered in stainless steel at monumental scale, now mark the redeveloped seafront boulevard in Cagliari’s port district. Dandelions began as a close structural study of Taraxacum officinale — the seed head’s radiating, almost architectural geometry — then translated that structure from the scale of a single flower to a public landmark several meters tall.

The result sits deliberately between two registers: futuristic in its material and precision, fairy-tale in its silhouette. Commissioned by the Autorità di Sistema Portuale del Mare di Sardegna, the four-piece installation anchors a prominent stretch of the newly redesigned coastal boulevard, giving the waterfront a recognizable identity point at the city’s edge.

Set against open sea and sky, the sculptures behave differently through the day — reflective and sculptural in daylight, animated by the shifting maritime light along the port.

Flights to the Seven Continents

Written by Mirek Struzik on 4. August 2026. Posted in Project.

Suspended overhead in Fresno Yosemite International Airport’s new terminal, Flights to the Seven Continents is an abstract composition built from the trajectories planes trace as they carry passengers around the globe. Mirrored spherical forms hang in dynamic arrangement, tracking flight paths rather than depicting them literally — the piece reads as pure movement frozen in metal.

The mirror-polished surfaces do the rest of the work: as travelers move beneath the sculpture, on foot or on the escalator, their reflections shift and multiply across the globes, briefly folding each passenger into the piece itself. It’s designed to catch people in the first moments of arrival — an unexpected, unforgettable welcome to the city.

The sculpture was designed and engineered by Mirek Struzik, with the full suspension structure prototyped and load-tested in his own studio before fabrication. The final piece was built at STRUZIK ART LTD and installed on-site by the client’s team under Mirek’s personal supervision — ensuring the same precision achieved in the studio was carried through to installation.

Bubble Trees in the Clouds

Written by wf_SUz on 3. August 2026. Posted in Project.

Bubble Trees in the Clouds was created specifically for the Innovative Learning Classroom Building of the Texas A&M University. This composition consists of the Struzik’s signature Bubble Tree on a terrace surrounded by glass walls, and a large scale wall art installation basing on a solid aluminum film wallpaper and three-dimensional, foamed PCV grass blade details.

The two elements complement each other and provide a calming, close to nature feeling to the students and faculty members of the high-tech facility in Collage Station, TX. They merge form, light, and space into a dynamic, thought-provoking piece that resonates with students, faculty, and visitors. The accompanying mural further enriches the experience, creating a harmonious dialogue between sculpture and environment.

The stainless steel sculpture on the terrace is uplit with the dynamic RGB LED system that changes colors – it additionally enhances the mood on the terrace in the evening. The wall art is visible from the terrace too – when relaxing under the tall sculpture, the audience can surround themselves in the specifically created, relaxing environment inspired both by nature, and by technology.

The project was realized as a result of Mirek Struzik winning an international art competition organized by the Texas A&M university. The goal was to create a set of two art installations that correspond with each other.

Jellyfish Shrub

Written by wf_SUz on 2. August 2026. Posted in Project.

Jellyfish Shrub elaborates on the themes such as processes and dependencies related with what lies at the heart of all life – plant growth and the role of oxygen in photosynthesis. The piece explores the interplay between biological science, art, and craft—profound yet intimately connected to everyday life—reflecting on our relationship with nature. It integrates themes of flora of the lands and seas, as well as the atmosphere we breathe. At sunset, the dynamic RGB lighting system transforms the sculpture in a stunning metamorphosis spectacle, making it a surreal addition to the green space beside retention pond.

Creating a site-specific sculpture for a scientific institution that focuses on agricultural biotechnology and integrating it with an interesting landscape with a scenic pond, modern architecture of the Academia buildings and research greenhouses.

Ultimately, the sculpture’s goal is to become a unique landmark that defines the space on the campus by being a focal point centered around scientific themes and utilizing biomimicry in its cutting-edge design.

The project was a cooperation between STRUZIK ART LTD and DADA IDEA Co., Ltd, and its first step was winning an international competition organized by Academia Sinica in Taiwan

The Roots Of The World

Written by wf_SUz on 1. August 2026. Posted in Project.

The Roots of the World is a sculpture inspired by all sorts of ideas found in historical cultures all over the world. The artist shows that they all interconnect and entwine the World. Now, thanks to easy access to information and in times of globalization, we can see that almost all, historically diverse peoples share common stories and values.

The sculpture is interactive and lets the kids play in an environment built by an audio-visual show inspired by all five elements of nature – including us, the civilization, as the fifth, new one

Bubble Trees

Written by wf_SUz on 31. July 2026. Posted in Project.

“Bubble Trees” was created as a new iteration of the Bubble sculptures series and reflects values similar to those presented by the Bubble Forest: the ability of plants to produce oxygen.
Bubble Trees in their basic form consists of three main elements (the trees), however they can be multiplicated, there can be many more Bubble Trees installed in the client’s location.
When the sun sets, the dynamic illumination system (RGB LED lamps in light boxes installed in ground + the controller) lets the sculpture undergo a complete metamorphosis and shows its true colors. It’s a great feature in dynamic public places, where a lot of people walk.

Dandelions – Dallas

Written by wf_SUz on 30. July 2026. Posted in Project.

“Dandelions” is an installation directly inspired by the sophisticated design of dandelions (Taraxacum officinale) occurring in nature. The concept of this work was preceded by a meticulous analysis of the structure of dandelion seedhead, which in a somewhat simplified form was then transposed to the macro scale. As a result, the delicate floral pattern took on a completely new — half futuristic, half fairy tale — context.
