**I Want to Ride My Bike** is a sketch from Willem Boronski’s *Brown Paper Series*, focusing on movement and resistance. The contours of a bicycle intertwine with abstract forms and lines, merging recognition and fragmentation. Spokes and circles suggest wheels, while blue and red accents add tension. A metal beam with bolts seems to interrupt the dynamic flow—an obstacle or a stabilizing element? The hand shape raises questions: is it reaching for the bike, pushing away, or symbolizing control? The rough, sketch-like technique with water-soluble graphite and pigment enhances the sense of transition and uncertainty. The title suggests freedom and desire, yet the ride is not guaranteed—this drawing explores the tension between progress and disruption, a recurring theme in Boronski’s work.

In ‘Multitudes: Layers of Reflection’, Willem Boronski guides us through a journey of emotions, ideas, and societal themes that define his work. At the heart of this retrospective is exploring the different 'realities' we navigate daily, symbolized by the staircase — a potent and recurring motif in Boronski’s oeuvre, representing the connection between worlds and realities.  
The staircase symbolises growth, reflection, and the tension between movement and stagnation and connects worlds and realities. From his early paintings to recent sketches and works, this exhibition showcases how Boronski’s use of layering and techniques invites the viewer to look beyond the surface. In this context, the staircase serves as a guiding thread, a metaphor for the personal and collective pursuit of understanding, empathy, and transformation, with the viewer as an active participant in this journey.  
An essential aspect of Boronski’s work is his creative process, evident in the traces of char
