The style of Ambroziak’s works refers to primitive African art. Both in Isaac’s Sacrifice and The Innocent the artist used outsize proportions of the bodies, which combined with the hostile facial expression, protruding eyes and highlighted genitals, emphasizes the existential drama of contemporary people.
