ARTIST STATEMENT
« My paintings depicting nature: that surrounds us, the micro- and macrososmos and human nature that is like immense space. Human is like space, forever changing energy fields: atoms as our blood circulation, as galaxies originate and stars decline, floating into ash inside. We are, as ash of stars, transmitting light…. » Krisztina Asztalos, 2004

BIO
Krisztina Asztalos, Hungarian artists, based in Budapest, has been painting since 1989 – her artistic talent was discovered by her art teacher at very young age in the Art faculty of local Elementary School – but her drawings were exhibited much before, – at the age of 4 – in kindergarden and she received several prizes at very young age for her artistic talent. She graduated with honour as drawing and visual communication teacher (BA/BVA) specialized on painting in 2001. Her paintings have been exhibited in solo and international group shows in Europe, Asia, Africa, United States. 5 elements – Earth, Water, Fire, Air, Space – most depicted elements of her artworks, inspired by eastern calligraphy, nature and human nature and urban life. Her large 2- 3 m long ink paintings ”Aqua” series are bringing the certain feeling of great dimensions. Urban series are depicting the multicolor vibration of metropolises with humour and a bit of sarcasm, personal responds for happenings of urban society. Each piece of element paintings are like a part of mosaic, depicting macro (earth- fire-air-water-space) and micro elements (human and urban life ).My aim is to depict the fabulous diversity and profusion of our universe.
