About Peter
Who is Peter Gil?I grew up by the Vistula River in Kociewie, northern Poland. Trained in industrial design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Gdańsk. Studied law, specialising in energy transfer (Master's). Spent a decade running strategy and marketing campaigns for various businesses and multinational corporations. Then I burned out. Hard. Dark years, therapy, rebuilding.
Now I paint full time from my cozy studio in rural Kociewie, reconnecting with the folk heritage I grew up around and asking the questions that matter: who am I, where do I belong, what do I carry forward.
The full story is on the About page.

Social media: DMs on Instagram are open, but email gets a faster, more thoughtful reply.
How can I stay updated on new work, shows, and releases?Mailing list is the best way. New works, exhibition announcements, and edition releases go to the list first. No spam, no algorithms, just direct updates. Join the mailing list.
