Sára Pozsgai, 1986, Hungary
Live and work in Holland
On my canvases, the boundary between reality and imagination blurs; emotions and memories surface through the instinctive encounter of color and form, creating spaces where fleeting feelings and deeply embedded experiences coexist. Abstract expressionism represents freedom to me – a spontaneous gesture a splash of paint, an uncontrolled movement from which stories unfold,.Often, I evoke the pulse of the city, the silent narratives of anonymous walls, the spirit of graffiti – as if the concrete jungle, too, could feel and dream. My surreal paintings act as visual therapies: redemptive moments where imagination dissolves reality, allowing me to play freely with time, space, and symbols.
Since then, painting has remained the most organic language of self-expression for me. A vital source of inspiration is my daughter, Hédi – our shared creative moments bring playfulness, spontaneity, and tender presence into my artistic process.
I am also related to the painter Árpád Bényi, whose artistic legacy has had a lasting influence on my vision.
