About the Artist

Gergely Bukovinszki

United Kingdom

For me, creating art is a way of existence, a way of looking at things and decoding, processing
information. I was born in Hungary into a musical family, but by the age of fifteen I found visual
communication to be the way to express my observations, deepest thoughts and emotions. By the time I
completed BA studies in 2009 I was already slightly disillusioned by the “art
world” in general, and realised that I better beat my own path. Being attracted to the vibrant life of
London and the beauty of the coastline in the South East of England, I decided to move there to find a
word of wisdom, challenge my paradigm and gain worldly experiences of a lifetime.
I have spent the next few years finding my own voice as a painter, traveling, researching and
compiling a vast amount of literature in all sorts of alternative subjects so I can confidently stand behind what I express in art without sounding like a baby crying in a crib. I developed great respect for stoicism and self studied theories of human psychology whilst continuously experimented with oil
painting techniques and also completed commissions to keep in practice. Today, I primarily paint with oil, themes that reflect my views of society and questions about human existence in general. I find oil paint to be the most suitable medium - kindly forgiving, yet to be a powerhouse of expressive voice. I appreciate the balance between slightly rough surface created by thick coat of paint, and the highly detailed fine
edges, playful thin coats of paint colouring the surface underneath. Through my paintings I aim to tell stories inspired by both current social and personal life events,
my years long research into the occult (hidden) world, history, symbolism and my observations of how
the human psyche can be and actually is affected by various traumatic events in a lifetime. The viewer
should expect serious topics explored with a hint of dark humour injected at times. Instead of arriving
at convictions, I ask questions regarding the original, uncorrupted purpose of life on this plane of
existence, leaving behind religious traditions and conventional ideas; and thous attempting to find the
“way out of here”.
