Szabina Góré

1988 born in Kazincbarcika, Hungary Lives and works in Sajószentpéter, Hungary My artistic practice deals with the delicate balance between the impersonal existence and the human soul with an ancient painting method, called encaustic (painting with melted, and coloured beewax). The organic beewax is a highly sacred material and has a complex symbol system. On the other hand, the bees existence is essential for the whole ecology, included the human life. This constant duality raises countless questions in contemporary art, and draws a parallel with the modernity and traditional approach. With my interiors and figurative paintings my intention is to discover hidden places in the subconscious. Querying the reality with the tools of grotesqueness and oddity is one of my aims. I try to place mental inquiry at the heart of each image I create.
