ARS( POETIC
I obtained my diploma from the Hungarian University of Fine Arts in Painting in 2015, with my mentor being András Halász. In 2017, I received a postgraduate diploma (Meisterschüler) from the Stuttgart Academy of Fine Arts where my reference was Thomas Bechinger. In 2022, I earned a master's degree in visual pedagogy from the Berlin University of the Arts. Currently, I work and sleep in Berlin.
I am a painter, drawer, writer, and dreamer who has a passion for exploring the boundaries of human existence and the world around
us. My art is a subjective and playful representation of society, marked by both humility and rebellion, tradition and modernity. I collect and document visual information from the world and transform it through simplification, disentanglement, flipping, and annotating with questions marks, dots, quotation marks, or exclamation marks. My approach is Dadaist, extraterrestrial, and
childlike, with a sense of wonder for everything from a bus schedule to a heritage site. My work is both personal and archival, an encyclopedia of portraits without the demand for completeness, a Babel and Noah's Ark of existence.
Language and words are a big part of my artistic expression. I am fascinated by different cultures and languages and I use text as a visual element or ornament, exploring the power and playfulness of language. My themes and characters balance humor and tragedy, reality and fiction, and the past and present.
My creations are characterized by their simplicity, sensitivity, and humor. My journal-like, syncretic approach to art reflects my belief in the importance of balancing multiple perspectives to create a more comprehensive understanding of the world.coming soon
