Mami, Tati
The work pays tribute to the artist’s parents, his personal heroes. The title, meaning ‘Mum, Dad’ in his native language, reflects the deep familial bond at the heart of this piece. Inspired by Transylvanian folklore and the luminous stained-glass windows — often referred to as ‘windows to the heavens’ — the composition echoes the spiritual and cultural influences that shaped his parents' lives. The vivid colors symbolize their complementary personalities.

Exit
The book introduces a newly invented language. It evokes a sense of visual vertigo, pushing the boundaries of perception as readers engage with its geometric hieroglyphs. It challenges viewers to explore how much meaning a simple line or dot can convey. Each reader is encouraged to interpret the symbols in their own way, creating a personal language with endless possibilities for discovery. Every time the book is opened, a new story is written. The portal divides the book in half, symbolising the threshold all creators must cross in their search for meaning.

Landscape
This work features four laser-cut wooden landscapes: mountain, desert, ocean, and countryside. Each landscape is viewed from the same perspective and at the same time of day, offering a unique glimpse into nature’s order and depth. The intricate four-layer pattern of each ecosystem reveals a delicate balance. The first layer depicts the flora, the second highlights geographic features and human efforts to shape the land, the third layer shows the fauna, and the fourth represents the heart — symbolising the core of the ecosystem. Each viewer is invited to explore their own values within the design of these landscapes. Is it the landscape we grew up in that shapes our lifestyle and values, or does our lifestyle shape the land we inhabit? Or is it the relationship between the two that defines us?
