PÁLHEGYI


I work with a diverse visual world as a designer and artist. Specializing in art direction, book design, and digital experiences. Currently living and working in Amsterdam.

I have a strong attitude toward visual thinking and experimenting. It is typical of my artistic practice to use graphic elements on unusual materials and in irregular environments and investigate the relation between plane surfaces and spatial settings. Besides the instinctive, intuitive gestures, conceptuality is equally significant. My center of interest is the combination of personal-anecdotal qualities with collective experiences. Apart from my solo projects, collaborative, interaction-based works have the same importance in my work.

Building a ‘bunker’ is a juvenile gesture. It is constructed with the available materials and tools, its spontaneous and naive. A stronghold raised in safe space, the conventional and instinct driven archetypical construction of defence. It manifests the needs of identity and personal world-building. At that young age it is pivotal in terms of social relations to manifest the relationships of danger, safety and defence and remain in that safe space. Meanwhile  an authentic experience comes from the ongoing struggle to ‘survive’. Fear is innate, its subject to be learned.
As an adult, it is vital to have a quick and constructive reaction at the time of danger, they actively obliterate the threat. The strategy of the child is to hide and lay low, quite passive compared to an adult. Your ‘adultness’ is questioned if you do not act accordingly. The ever judging social environment evaluates your attitude and makes it impossible to traverse between worlds. For that very reason failure is multi -faceted. To even voice your need of such place shows your incompetence in these matters. As a naive and spontaneous child, a successful ‘bunker’ is eminent and you gain the adult world’s favour. Adults reacting in times of crisis -trying to adopt these ‘childish’ methods-  lose these complexions and implement additional hard-wired safety measures. That way all those craved spontaneous  acts are lost for good.

DEPI

We were depressed and thought how original it would be to make something out of it. We chose to make a zine, because it's just a zine, it comes without any responsility. We had a lot of friends in the same shoes, so we called them to do a few pages. This is what it has become.
