Foolface drawings - 2018
The entire "Bolondképű" series originated from the apathy caused by academic education. Numerous misconceptions, copying, and standardization. When is a piece of art finished? Is it ever finished? A lot of theatrical, affected pretense. The mystification of the artist's life. By 2018, the appropriation of elements from trashy, mainstream/pop-cultural tales was already trending in the international art scene. It was very refreshing and liberating for me to try out this type of attitude. I decided to paint only things that are not "allowed." I wanted to depict silly, strange, stupid, vulgar things and paint 'queer' things or borrow motifs from anime. That's how this series started, and I complemented it with colored pencil drawings.
