Chess Mate - curated by Reka Kaloczy

A curation by Reka Kaloczy, Curator · Creative Consultant & Producer · Artist Mentor & Manager at - Linked by the presence of the chessboard and its iconic pieces, these artworks explore the object itself as a symbol of order, balance, and imagination. Across realistic scenes, surreal landscapes, and bold abstractions, the board becomes a field of patterns and contrasts, while the pieces stand as small sculptures of strategy and possibility. Shapes, shadows, and squares build quiet rhythm; kings, queens, and pawns appear less as game elements and more as poetic forms. Together, these works reflect on structure, symbolism, and the timeless allure of an object that invites both contemplation and play.
