ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Exploring the interplay between urban landscapes and our individual narratives, Eszter Bornemisza, a Budapest-based fiber artist, intricately crafts recycled paper, textiles, and soft materials into this thought-provoking installation. Embracing machine stitching, dyeing, and painting, her work evokes both tangible and abstract maps, seeking to capture the essence of navigating physical and mental spaces within cities. Through fragmented, distorted city plans, Sense of Place symbolizes the evolution of our societal narratives alongside evolving urban structures, inviting contemplation on our collective experience in the Age of Information.
“Maps are imprints of us living in a system. Like labyrinths,” says Bornemisza, “they offer a rich ground for associations, deepening our understanding of our life and circumstances. As the urban structure develops, widens, thickens, clots, and creates subsystems in history, the cities that live within us undergo an endless and continuous evolution. ”
