RÉKA SZABÓ
As a Hungarian visual artist born in 1986 in Erdély-Romania, I have developed a profound connection to the natural world. I graduated from the High School of Fine Arts, obtained a university degree in Graphic Art, and later earned a Master's degree in Design-Visual Communication. Since completing my institutional education in 2013, I have primarily focused on environmental art, conceptual art, and site-specific installations.
My outdoor artworks are created using natural materials and are driven by a commitment to environmental protection. I often create large-scale pieces that respond to their surroundings, while at other times, I experiment with natural elements in research-based installations.
Within gallery settings, I create site-specific installations that seek to transcend the physical confines and guide the audience's interpretation back to Nature. As art historian Eszter Vámosi once observed, "Réka Szabó's installations want to get out of the galleries. They are timeless and limitless. Her play with light and space extends beyond walls."
Through my work in Nature, I am deeply invested in exploring the interplay between human existence and the environment. My goal is to underscore our intrinsic connection with the landscape that we must cherish and protect.
