Most recent interview for ColourSpaces. Words by Radim Malinic:

The second instalment in the ColourSpaces interview season comes from Maciej Hajnrich. Also known as Valp, he’s been making creative industry tremor with a mixture of breathtakingly intricate illustrations since 2007. Such is depth and detail of his complex images, he gives a viewer the chance to immerse themselves further and embark on an exploration journey into the world of vibrant and colourful tales.

Since meeting Valp at the beginning of this freelance career, I have been always amazed with his latest work. He doesn’t cease to surprise, excite and inspire whilst pushing the envelope a little bit further every time. Based in Polish town of Katowice, Maciej has now got international reach with portfolio bursting many weird and wonderful benchmark pieces for some of the biggest names in the world. He is, after all what he calls himself, a graphic illusionist.
