CONTEMPORARY NARRATIVES // WEAVING & GARDEN & TIME
The exhibition presents works created within the framework of The Curtain of Time, a thematic workshop in which invited artists reflected on the technique of weaving. Through our artistic program, we seek to create a counterpoint to the accelerated virtual world shaped by the pervasive digitalization of our lives by sustaining manual artistic practices. One such significant technique is weaving, whose rhythm—built upon repetitive gestures and deep concentration—enables an intensified experience of presence in the moment.

DÁNIEL BAJKÓ fine artist / ZSÓFIA HIDASI visual artist / ÁGI HORVÁTH fine artist / MÁJKÜL NÁJT/ ATTILA DÓCZI fine artist / PÉTER MÁTYÁSI fine artist / ÁKOS RAJNAI multidisciplinary artist / DÁVID REMSEY visual artist / LÁSZLÓ SIPOS writer, composer / ANNAMÁRIA SZENTPÉTERY intermedia artist / CSANÁD SZESZTAY photographer / PÉTER TIBA media artist / ÁDÁM TÓTH designer / TÜNDE ÚJSZÁSZI visual artist / ZSÓFIA ZALA designer
Our aim is to encourage visitors toward contemplation and reflection; therefore, instead of traditional opening speeches, the exhibition can be explored through an accompanying booklet that reveals the ideas behind the visual artworks. The experience of immersion will be accompanied by the music of Musica Moralia, while the state of slowing down and achieving physical and mental balance can be observed through the Tai Chi movements of Ádám Tóth in the garden. In the exhibition space, visitors can listen to the sound collage by Csanád Szesztay, a unique interpretation composed from audio recordings captured in the weaving workshop. The evening will conclude inside the interior space of the Calvary at the end of Körösfői Street with an ephemeral interdisciplinary installation by the Zartartz group.
