Otecki (Polish, born 1984), is an illustrator, printmaker, painter, and mural artist working in Wroc\u0142aw, Poland. Otecki finds influence in Cubism, non-Western art, and Slavonic folklore. He is fond of presenting dualistic worlds and characters; especially human-animal combinations that are \u201cpart majesty and part mystery,\u201d as the artist puts it.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The public is encouraged to come out and view the mural being created.
