OMNE TRINUM PERFECTUM" a unique triptych by Adrian Purgał created in collaboration with Pono.
The passing of Rafał "Pono" Poniedzielski was sad news for many people involved in music and culture. The co-founder of ZIP Skład and the duo Sokół & Pono left behind a rich legacy, and the projects he worked on until the very end have taken on special significance today. One of them is the exceptional triptych "OMNE TRINUM PERFECTUM" – a graphic work by Adrian Purgał, which Pono managed to see, discuss, and receive with great appreciation.
The work was created based on three music awards Pono received – a platinum record, a double platinum record, and a gold record for albums created with Sokół. These awards were not enclosed in a classic binding – on the contrary, they became the centerpiece of three large-format compositions, creating an artistic story about a creative journey and inner growth.
Each part of the triptych symbolizes a different stage of this journey.
The common denominator of these works is the idea of a journey: from matter to consciousness, from everyday life to a universe in which art and reflection become a natural continuation of a musical career. The triptych is an artistic reference to this perspective—not only a tribute, but also a record of shared inspirations.
The triptych "OMNE TRINUM PERFECTUM" is not only a work of art, but also a symbolic bridge between Pono's music, known throughout Poland, and the visualized story of life and desires.
AUREA MEDIOCRITAS
- The Golden Mean -
The first panel shows the wall, the cracks, and the raw structure of matter. It's a metaphor for beginnings, determination, and building one's own space despite adversity.
LIBERTAS
- Freedom -
The second - central section is an explosion of color, form, and movement. It symbolizes energy, creative freedom, and the moment when years of work begin to bear fruit and creativity reaches its full potential.
PER ASPERA AD ASTRA
- Through hardships to the stars -
The third panel transports the viewer towards cosmic inspirations: philosophy, mathematics, energy, and harmony. It's a vision of artistic maturation—a theme that has recurred in Pono's conversations in recent years.
