CV
Sculptor
Budapest, 1991
Founder of Parallel Hungary Collective with Varga Tünde
I typically do not create autonomous artworks, but rather construct situations at the intersection of sculpture and architecture: I open doors, windows, and passageways, block paths with walls, and build staircases—always on a scale capable of engaging the human body.
My main interest lies in exploring the spatial dimensions of our relationship to ourselves, to community, and to freedom and power structures. I currently experiment with sculptural and architectural forms that are not only made for the eye but are composed for full somatic experience.
The spatial aspects of becoming a mother, the intricate networks of female communities that support maternal well-being, and the division of intimate and public space between the strong and the vulnerable have recently become key sources of inspiration for my work.
My daughter was born in 2023.
