About this artwork
In this painting, I wanted to depict love not as a romantic feeling, but as that primal force from which all life springs. For me, Cupid is not a winged child, but an energy that grows, branches out, and permeates the fabric of the world.
In ancient tradition, Cupid (Eros) is not only the god of sensual love, but also the primal force of life, giving rise to movement and creation. In the philosophy of Empedocles, for example, Eros is the unifying,… creative force of the universe—the opposite principle to neikos, strife.
My imagery here is entirely symbolic, an attempt to make love, whether human or divine, visible as a creative principle

I am a fantasist par excellence (to paraphrase Dalí).
Specific data from my life:
I was born in Cluj-Napoca, studied fine arts for eight years and was subsequently active with my traveling theatre Fabularia until 1989, when I had to leave the country with my family because of my political opposition activities.
We settled in Austria, but in the last ten years my wife and I have settled in Hungary.
I continued my theatre work until 2010, with many performances in Austria and Italy. In the meantime, I wrote a lot – diaries, manuscripts, and books.
Since 2010 I have finally been able to dedicate myself to my calling, which I have cultivated since high school: painting.
I have had exhibitions in Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Poland, Russia – and last year my first solo exhibition in Cluj-Napoca, my hometown, which I left 35 years ago.
