MICHAL PLIS
Melbourne-based multidisciplinary artist Michal Plis, born in Poland’s Pomeranian Baltic coast in the early 1980s, creates abstract paintings and sculptures that sculpt with light. His work explores optical phenomena such as fluorescence, transparency, and reflectivity, producing shifting perceptual experiences. Currently training at the Melbourne Studio of Art, he will unveil his new art movement in the 2025 exhibition Glimpse of Another Universe.
Roundism Art Movement
Conceptualized by Michal Plis in 2022 and publicly released on 15/11/2025, Roundism is a new, structured art movement. It provides a set of secular principles—using only completely round, edgeless forms of dots, circles, rings, and spheres—for artists to interpret the world in either a figurative or abstract way.
