Hyper-Surrealist from Padina
Jano Šimek discovered his talent as a painter in elementary school, but he quickly fell into oblivion, limiting himself to occasional pencils. In 1995, oil on canvas became his passion, and with the help of experienced painters he acquired his first skills. From the start, he rejected naivety, opting for realism. His paintings combine real objects and people, placed in surreal scenes. Constantly exploring, Jano is between realism and surrealism, and his colleagues call him a hyper-surrealist.
