The Dr. Éva Kahán Foundation cordially invites you to the exhibition
Bea Kusovszky | IT ALL STARTED WITH A CRUMPLED LOVE LETTER...
Bea Kusovszky's work is characterised by a materiality reminiscent of graphic art, the rhythmicity of the structured surfaces, optical stimulation and the play of image within image (or rather frame within frame) that has characterised her work from the beginning. She is constantly expanding her toolbox with the imprint of the visuality of digital culture. One of the main motifs of the exhibition is the pattern that emerges from the image of folded or crumpled paper, and as she writes, "it all started with a crumpled love letter."
