Gergely Sarreti
1984 Born, Nyíregyháza, Hungary
In my art practice, I put special emphasis on crossing conventional rules, expanding the boundaries of sculpture. In the center of my experiments and interest is usually balanced in the categories like new genre public art, site-specific installations, and interactive sculpture, which differ in their material and technical solution. My works are mostly based on the problem of high and low art, exposing the artwork to the ascertainment of design, kitsch, or the traditional fine art phenomenon.
