"A member of the new generation of Szentendre artists. He started out as painter and sculptor, later he turned to media-based art.
The common idea behind his artworks is the closeness of nature, or, conversely, the alienation from it. His wooden statues may allude to self-destruction – that means, to the inconsiderate elimination of our environment –, but these allusions are never direct. His objects get new functions by a change of the roles of the different materials and instruments. He recreates and reinterprets, disintegrates and rebuilds, calls into question accepted roles and overwrites rigid clichés. His sculptures are exact diagnoses for the off-the-balance system of relations of our times. The pin that is bored into the wall, the wooden magnet that attracts wood, a saw that floats on the water or slices a hill, an axe that splits cut-up wood are all telling about the disorder of scales and balances. His works constitute a unique, sovereign microcosm, governed by irreal rules. His artworks have two poles, just like his symbolic horseshoe magnet, but his aim is not to widen the antagonism between the two poles but to narrow it."
