Memorial Bath

What can the collective message of a personal memory be like? What is the personal message of a collective memory? Are memories present as hidden, concealing patterns? How much do we show ourselves, how much do we reveal of ourselves if we share our memories? What does a thin layer of porcelain reveal and what does it show? There are recurring elements in our memories that reemerge from time to time and then fade under the influence of an experience, sight, or sound. In the same way as different light conditions make it appear, hidden images on displayed porcelain objects appear to be different in intensity.

The works of Zsuzsa Boldizsár (ceramic designer) deal with the issue of repetition and remembrance. Her works are characterized by the playful exploration of hidden meanings and messages in objects and the examination of our relationship to them. With her hidden series, she makes earthenware where the character of the object changes significantly depending on light conditions. The object thus slows down the reception process itself, motivating contemplation and observation. The starting point of her porcelain postcards is a series of pictures taken by photographer Lili Sziráki, which she reflects on in parallel with her own family photographs.

With the series displayed by Lili Sziráki (photographer), in connection with the above issues, she is looking for the answer to what those places, locations, pieces at home, feelings from home are that may be represented in non-traditional postcards. There is a possible answer in her reading, in her selection of images for all of us. In the same way, yet differently.
