As I mentioned yesterday, today I visited the new exhibitions to avoid missing them. Lucky me, I was still in time, do today I can show you some new arts photos and share a funny story too as I had part of a very nice and funny surprise.

The first exhibition I visited was a shared exhibition of Kinga Lőrincz and Borostyán Kelemen, called "Boundary-Lines". Two talented ladies with art you've never seen before and the title is not random, there's a reason they chose it.

The mandatory first photo at the entrance, that gives you an idea of what you're going to see. Usually this is the place where I say a silent "wow", that can be literally anything, but I'll let you decide what kind of wow it is for you, so let's see what I brought for you today :)

Borostyán Kelemen - Small horizontal dance, brown-purple

Abstract art and unfortunately I lack the knowledge, or capability to understand it, so I'm just going to let you enjoy it.

Kinga Lőrincz - Village

This on the other hand is a different matter. I had to have a closer look to see how it was made. First I thought it's a print, but it wasn't, it was painted and in a very nice way. The village is kind of hidden, or minimized inside the pattern. It's not exactly my kind of art, but I love it.

Kinga Lőrincz - Hills

Similar style, different artwork and this is where my suspicions got some confirmation. At the first painting, I thought I'm seeing female body parts. Here I can say the same, but who knows. Seeing something repeatedly doesn't mean it is there.

The work resembles graphics, which is more common than painting and possibly a bit easier, but this is just my thinking.

I took a close-up photo to show you, it's not a print, it's a painting and I can only admire those who are talented enough to create such artworks using only lines. You really need to know the directions you drive those lines towards.

Borostyán Kelemen - Two purple figures on a long yellow background

Borostyán Kelemen - Compulsion

This was the cherry on the cake. A bound body and the snail on top indicates that it has been in this position for some time. It's sad and causes you an unpleasant feeling when you think that there is a person there, but in a figurative sense, this is how life is. In so many occasions you find yourself bound and you don't know how to get out of it.

And now let me show you the fun part.

In the last room, there was this canvas on the wall, with the painting accessories next to it. At first I thought they recreated a painter's workshop.

Then I thought it would be a fantastic idea, to set up such a workshop with a clean canvas in one of the exhibitions and let visitors paint whatever they want and then see how the canvas looks after 3 weeks, when the exhibition ends.

Then I asked the curator lady what this thing is and ... can you guess what her answer was? Exactly the idea I mentioned above 😂. She told me I can paint something on it if I want, so I did 🤣.

As you know, I have no talent, but I wanted to contribute to this marvelous artwork, so I looked for a piece of canvas where I can paint something and the bird looked suitable.

First I made a drawing with some kind of chalk. A real masterpiece, you can see it 😆

And here it is, finished with paint 🙈

What do you think? Is there a chance for me to become the next Picasso? 🤣

Anyway, it was really fun and an unique chance not many have. I mean you can paint at home, but to paint in a gallery and leave your "master-piece" on canvas for everyone to see ... 😂

Have you ever been part of such fun? I have.
