Background and Style
Origins in Poland: Handke was attracted to art from an early age, evolving his technique from traditional painting forms to creating colourful graffiti on urban grey walls in Poland.
Move to England: He moved to England in 2005 to establish himself as a professional Artist and enhance his profile, continuing his work despite a major eye trauma.
Artistic Approach: His work is characterized by a unique, vibrant, and dynamic aesthetic that can be described as “Freakstylez”. He creates both large-scale murals and exhibition pieces.
Community Involvement: Based in the Huddersfield area, FREAKone actively engages with the local community. He offers both one-to-one and group tutoring in both Art and Bonsai Tree Cultivation. He also brings his work to life through live art performances at music events throughout Yorkshire.
Exhibitions and Recognition: FREAKone has featured in a multitude of Exhibitions. In September 2023, the Eastern European Culture Zone in Huddersfield hosted a dedicated Exhibition of his works to celebrate Eastern European culture and talent, which included the launch of a specific collection called “Project Gold”. In 2025, FREAKone was commissioned to create inspiring murals on the walls of a café in Spain.
