About this artwork
"Soap from Aleppo" is part of Oliver Szax's "Instinctual elements" series, an artwork created back in 2018.
This Syrian civil war-inspired painting is combining minimalist-geometric and expressionist-realist elements, as well as using Szax's own symbol system.
The artwork won the first prize of the "Outcast Europe" Fine Art Contest in Budapest, Hungary in 2018 and was also exhibited afterwards in Athene, Greece.
The purpose of the project was… to improve conditions for intercultural dialogue and civic participation through the presentation of various experiences with migration in the past and present. Reflecting on current debates around migration, the programme was expected to cultivate empathy and understanding towards “outsiders” and stimulate active engagement in the process of migrants’ integration.

« Even if the successful creation is accomplished, an eternal and obstinate duality is born: the creative process is as short as a moment, and it is also never-ending. »
Oliver Szax is a prizewinning Hungarian painter with international exposure. His background in the field of graphic design can be seen in his geometric abstraction works which combine simple shapes with color and show to create multi-dimensional structures. Szax's work explores relations, tension and balance which are represented through unique color combinations and proportions. His work is minimalist, panted in a realistic-expressionist and sometimes surrealist style. Oliver's work's have an unusual atmosphere that keeps audiences returning to his work again and again.
