Yesterday I mentioned in my post that when you go to an exhibition and know that there will be only one artist exhibiting, you most likely think the style of the artworks will be pretty similar. Sometimes this is true, other times you'll face a huge surprise. Obviously every artist has their own style, which can change over the years, or remain the same.
This exhibition hall had two levels and the artworks were spread on both. You can see some of the artworks I photographed on the ground floor, here and please go have a look as you'll understand the difference in style what I'm going to show you in this post.
The artist was Gyöngyi Kerekes and the exhibition was called Internal Stairs.
If you checked my previous post I mentioned above, now you know what I meant. Never have I ever imagined I would see such a huge difference in style, just a couple of meters above.
While looking around I was thinking, I've never seen such artworks before. At least not at a live exhibition.
The artist was born in 1958, this means she's been creating art for a long time now and as people change in time, their style can change too. Basically it's impossible to do the same thing for decades.
This artwork had a glass top, so the only way I could take a photo was from this position. Most likely there are two half circles of the same size, different colors, but I can't remember exactly.
Spiritual Garden
It's acrylic on canvas and has a diameter of 120cm. To be honest, I stood there kind of clueless.
Internal Stairs
Acrylic on canvas, 200x45 cm. I stood in front of this one and focused on holding the my phone steady and framing the photo right. I'll let you judge the artwork.
Spiritual Garden
I liked this one. Don't see it as a spiritual garden, and maybe the gray could be replaced with a more vivid color, but I like it. Or maybe gray means something?
Whenever I see a strange artwork, I'm always trying to figure out how it was made. So I took a close up photo to be able to show you. There were no brush marks, so maybe it was made with another technique.

The Images Of Silence
At this point I was thinking, let's do a reverse exercise. Let's say someone tells you to create a painting to illustrate silence. What would you do? How would you paint silence? I have no idea what I would do. Most likely I would paint the canvas in one color, but which color would I pick? What color is silence? What about you? How would you paint silence? I asked ausbit's AI bot with this prompt silence painting artwork and got a young woman's face, with yellow, blue and red paint running down her hair. I don't want to post it here, but it's interesting.
Spiritual Garden
To my disappointment, this one had no title. So now you can let your imagination lose and give the artwork a title. Tell me what you see here and what the artist wanted to share with the audience. I personally have no clue, but it looks nice, colorful.
Spiritual Garden
Seeing so many Spiritual Garden's, if I put them together, like the flowers in a garden, I think it can symbolize one's spiritual state in different phases. Or not.
