Poignant artwork depicts the entrance way into a concentration camp with an imitation model of what a gas chamber looked like. Detailed work amplifying the horrors of the chamber, its aftereffects and harsh reality.
Artist writes: "I was one of the hidden children of the holocaust, which i survived in Budapest. In this sense, history preserved me to remain a child. Perhaps this formed my fascination with discarded objects. From my collection of found objects, I chose those which befit of thoughts of that particular moment of my creative process. Discarded objects have a previous life… and weather, dirt, mangling forces and oxidation alter and mature them, causing them to reach a state of beauty. Their forms become aesthetically more relevant because they have been deprived of their commercial references. They reincarnate through my vision and artistic activities, as I restructure them, assemble them for a new and potentially eternal art. – Eva Kolosvary
