Akos Szenasi

I started painting in 2024, drawing on creative influences that reach back to my involvement in graffiti culture during the 1990s - I work under the artist name SZÉNA, a name I originally used as my graffiti tag during that period and have continued to use as my artistic identity today.

Today, I work with hand-carved wood, layered wooden structures, mosaics, and acrylic paint. What fascinates me most is the interaction between the image and its surface. Just as graffiti creates a dialogue between spray paint and a wall, my work explores the relationship between paint and wood. The material is not simply a support but an essential part of the artwork itself.

By combining engraving, layered wood elements, and painting, I create mixed-media works that blend texture, color, and depth. My artistic approach is driven by experimentation and a desire to blur the boundaries between painting, relief, and contemporary urban-inspired art.
