Attila Kertész (b. 1985)
Is there an alternative to our personalities, and to what extent can our decisions unfold what we were destined for? Can we even articulate what we are at this present moment, in our current reality? Perhaps we've all pondered what would have happened if we were not born into this Universe. Are there parallel realities, or is it our imagination and life's imperfections that inspire in us the desire to envision ourselves in different worlds and roles? What if we weren't the way we are, but rather shaped ourselves through life, fate, genetics, or simply our own decisions? We embark on a journey to unveil the essence of our existence, exploring the edges of doubt. We distance ourselves from conscious presence and delve into the hidden corners of the subconscious, revealing everything that undoubtedly exists within us, even if invisibly, until the end of our time. These are unexplored territories, which we not only need to deal with but are essential for the fulfillment of our existence. Through his artworks, Attila Kertész invites us to a collective therapy, creating alternatives to our existence through subjective self-images and fantasies. Expressive representations of nude figures present parallel states of the soul, offering glimpses into our invisible layers. This is the anatomy of the soul. Beyond the physical layers and transcending the invisible, he uncovers non-existing realms through his models, which even they are unaware of, yet these realms exist within them as part of the present reality. He presents parallel states of being while his muses unconsciously strip off their physical selves to reveal what truly makes them human. This is a new form of soul representation on canvas, seeking a way out of darkness into the fullness of light. It's an analysis without questions, made visible through art.
