Biography

During my teens, I was inspired by the creations of famous fashion and interior designers, hairstylists and jewellers and set about trying to capture the raw essence and sheer beauty of their creations and incorporating it into my own work.  As I matured I began to find inspiration everywhere I looked in both the natural and the man made world about me.I am always on the look out for old and new styles, themes and trends, often finding them unexpectedly when I travel to new places, when walking in the countryside or visiting a charity shop.  I have worked in many places around Europe but focused a lot of my time in Hungary, however, after a 4 month spell in Australia I was finally lead to move to the United Kingdom in 2012. I always was involved in art, architecture and interior design and now I reveal few in the last 20 years of work. In the last one year these lockdowns have certainly invigorated my creative side. I have started to paint pictures. This path wasn’t totally new for me because I had used to paint in the late 90’s with oil but after the few trial I gave it up because I didn’t feel enough ability for it or might be was too young. Now I think I’m more experienced and have found a style what is closer to me like a perspective drawings with geometric patterns mixing a bit of nature elements. Between two paintings as a brain storming and relaxing I have made some up-cycled small pieces. In my whole life I always like DIY I have tried to transform to the object, I was looking for the way how can I change the normal function and turn to different one.
