When did you first feel that you wanted to become an artist? Was there a defining experience?

My parents sent me to art school even before I went to school. They got a good sense of what my path was.

It has always been a part of my life, in fact it is my life. The only thing that changes is the material I use.

In the last 5 years I've been doing mostly textile paintings.

I am interested in beauty and harmony, the relationship between nature and human, using a stich-bonding technique. My giant artworks have been exhibited in the Visegrád Palace and in the Citadel, as well.

When I work with my own body prints, I am talking about my and other people's inner, emotional relationships.

A Memento Parkban, Szoborpark Múzeumban állandó kiállításom van az érzelmi bántalmazásról, elnyomásról.

How do you deal with creative block when inspiration doesn’t come?

This never happens. When I work on a project, I give the client space, so it's a collaborative process; I always have thoughts and feelings, I just have to find the right material and the time to create.

How is your relationship with art and the public?

I like that I have an impact on the viewer, that I can inspire my audience by evoking their own thoughts and feelings through my work.

My exhibition at Memento Park was particularly well received. My works are very powerful, and the audience is usually influenced for a long time. Some people came out with tears in their eyes, others tried to process their own experiences in other ways.

But not all my work is shocking. A friend of mine, who is an art historian, said that he didn't believe it was possible to create something new and good on the subject of '56, but my sculpture proved him wrong.

Is there a person—whether an artist or from another field—who has had a significant impact on you?

In the classical sense of the word, there were no artists who had a great influence on me, but I really like to engage in symbolic dialogue with other artists or their works. Double Erzsi is my answer to Andy Warhol's Double Elvis. My Blue Painter series is a reference to the works of Simon Hantai, and Biatorbágy celebrated the 100th anniversary of the birth of the master with my works. My large textile paintings include Hommage á Sean Scully and Josef Albers. I am currently working on a series of photographs to commemorate quite a few famous artists in a special way, but it is still a super secret project. 😊
