Out of green

Out of green

Out of green series is made by large green watercolor pictures depicting the last remaining habitats of some protected and rare plant species in Hungary – marshlands, wetlands and preserves. These areas are now shrinking to 3% of their former size as a result of natural and artificial draining of the surface water and groundwater, which also threatens with the extinction of protected species living here. Monochrome works made with airbrush technique show us alienated landscapes: a world where the coexistence of man and nature can no longer be realized, surviving organisms of nature can only be seen as relics. The distance between viewer and sight is even more pronounced by the polycarbonate plate placed in front of the image surfaces - placing the viewer behind the seemingly safe protection of the greenhouse.
