The most important artistic project is the “METRO” series, which began in 2012. This is a unique series of paintings, graphics and performances in which Tchaikovsky, fascinated by the underground world of Paris, creates elements and specific names of Parisian metro stations. His works are not only full of profound symbols, but also represent Paris as a symbol of culture and the fundamental universal values ​​of European history.

It is characterized by an unusual painting material, adapted to practical applications, with an individual character. Each painting in the “METRO” series refers to a specific base of the Paris metro, and deep attention to detail focused on working with symbolism contains the essence of his works.

The premiere took place at the Alliance Française in Łódź in 2013, and since then the artistic works have been revealed at many prestigious exhibitions in Poland and abroad, including: at the Grand Palais during the ART CAPITAL exhibitions in 2017 and at Corrousel Du Louvre in 2016.

His works are a dialogue with the viewer, using literary codes that can be fully understood on an intellectual level. It is deeply thought-out, detached from the chaos of the modern world, present in symbolic values ​​and messages that concern copyright as well as an independent recipient.
