industry. Porada was involved in the production of movie posters, and his most remarkable work was a poster for Katyn directed by iconic Andrzej Wajda. Now the artist fully devotes himself to his own art, which seems to be an ode to femininity, at least, it’s what Porada says about these paintings: “The main theme of my paintings is feminine nudity and an attempt to show her beauty in a way that is not always obvious, not always real. That is why surrealistic meetings of worlds far from each other in ᴛι̇ɱe and space are not alien to me. In my paintings, the real world intertwines with the unreal world, but above all, it is my personal tribute to a Woɱaп who is an almost perfect entity…” (danielporada.pl)

figures competing for the woɱaп’s attention is a subtle reference to the actual correlation between males and females in some “matriarchal” species. At the same ᴛι̇ɱe, Porada’s females are often surrounded by brutal males of the animal
