...with Zsófia Keresztes

In this episode of WAS MIT KUNST, Johann König talks to the hungarian artist Zsófia Keresztes. Zsófia creates large sculptural works and installations out of a combination of materials that straddle identities both virtual and real. These are often finished in pastel hues of light blue, beige, coral, and pink, adding to their appropriation of actual and imagined bodies. In recognition of her capacity to transform sites and contexts into imagined worlds of part-objects and bodily attachments, Zsófia was chosen to represent her native Hungary at the 2022 Venice Biennale. In the Podcast Johann and Zsófia talk about the duality in her works, how she works in the studio and about her upcoming exhibition IN ETHYLENE ARMS, which opens on the 13th of September in the nave of the König Galerie, Berlin.
