Kuba was born on December 17th 1982 in Melbourne, Australia. Kuba is a painter and poet working predominately in the area of visionary/mystic art. A number of early experiences fostered an interest in fantastic art and spirituality. Brought up by Polish parents, a graphic designer and a devout catholic mother, both of whom influenced his path as an artist. In 2006 Kuba completed a Bachelor of Painting at RMIT before embarking on a nine month journey to Europe to further his growing interest in renaissance art. In 2007 he spent six months working as a painting apprentice for Austrian artist Prof. Ernst Fuchs.
In 2008 Kuba was employed at Victorian Art Conservation where he worked as a picture framer and art restorer. During this period he began a cycle of painting exploring the ‘divine influx’ expressing the interplay of divine forces within the receptive vessel of the human being. Ambrose’s travels led him to Jordan, Israel, Bali and Far North Queensland. In 2011 he was invited to teach the ‘misch technik’ during a ten day painting retreat in Ubud, Bali. This was followed by the ‘InSpire’, ‘Sacred Realms’ and ‘Sacred Visions’ seminars in Melbourne and Cairns. In 2012 he travelled to Torri Superiore in Italy to take part in the ‘Expanded Visions in the MischTechnik’ hosted by Laurence Caruana.
Later that year he published his first book of poems and images titled ‘Branches of the Vine’. His artwork has been exhibited internationally and can be found in numerous art collections. He is currently based in Vienna, Austria where he will be teaching as a lecturer at the Vienna Academy of Visionary Art.
“I am interested in contributing something towards the reigniting of sacred art. This for me means to express the soul’s unique journey towards truth, love and liberation through the creation of art.” Kuba Ambrose
