Genius Loci project

It is the personal experience that connects the paintings about my surroundings in the past three years. I have been developing these works in ever-widening geographic circles from my home environs in Budapest to different European locations and New York City. What interests me is the impact seemingly insignificant public spaces exercise over all of us, that is, I am interested in the “genus loci”, the spirit of place, that determines mental environment, architecture and naturally painting.
This series of my paintings is based in a repetitive methodology, in them the ever simpler “buildings” have been transformed into rhythms and painterly musical systems just as it happened in abstract expressionist painting. However, selecting the right detail while sometimes walk right on the edge of recognizability,
my paintings always preserve the character of the given locale and its visually accessible complexity – that is, the real Spirit of place.
