One of Krasiński's "trademark" symbols was a blue adhesive tape, always at 1.3 meters above the ground, which he incorporated into numerous paintings, sculptures and site-specific installations. His works are in permanent and public collections at some of the most prestigious European and American museums, such as Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, [url=https://discogs.com/label/72301]MoMA[/url], Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, and Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam.
