Katalin Kovács
The location is my village, the models are my loved ones. They are shown in strange, naked situtations, as if their existence was full of childish curiosity, naivity and informality in this rather bizarre place - as they actually exist in my mind.
Barnie
From the very beginning his prior goal was to be and stay a self-conscious artist, who has no barriers when it comes to take the best picture. He represents a faster, moving and impulsive art by using digital technics, but while he believes in the easily maintainable, he still cares a lot about preparation. He’s playing a lot with contrasts. If you take a better look on his compositions, you’d see, that the models are usually in a foily, very questionable situation. Direct lights, harsh games of lightning, abstract, sometimes surreal sets, contrasts and exaggerations are all making his themes more and more intense, calling for the question: is it commercial, fashion or art?
