Ildiko Kalapacs

Ildikó Kalapács is a Hungarian American visual artist living in Washington state. Her work is rooted in two cultures (Hungarian and US American) and influenced by her travels as a folk dancer and artist. She explores cultural and personal identity through cultural objects, language, human condition, body language, and gender roles to reflect the cultural flux and the cultural resistance to the West in the era of globalization. Her three-dimensional art works consist of mostly ceramic works with some mixed media and bronze pieces.
