Additional Info
Ország’s drawings are a strange mix of landscapes, portraits and performances presented in a dream-like trance. Her drawings are inspired by found imagery and the written word, from accidental photographs and historical photojournalism to instruction manuals and religious texts. She explores the insatiable human desire for a promised land, a utopia beyond the physical limits of Earth. The False Victor, The Appointed ask the viewer to test their beliefs around traditional authority narratives, variants of force and the repercussions we face by complying and forfeiting our will. Also presented are four Immaculate Landscapes that offer a place of respite in their meditative Rorscharch-inspired symmetrical landscapes, inviting the viewer into a state of self-reflection.
