I find only the continuous manipulation of clay to be the fundamental principle in my imaginative process, which ultimately results in a sculptural fusion of grooves, protuberances, cuts and marks, in a continuous search for harmony. As a sculptor, I am fascinated by the infinite combination of forms in nature, which align with each other. If we look closely, we can find a precise geometry in the formations, of which we are also a part. Geometry in the organic and the organic in geometry.

Tamas Podhraczky was born in 1979 in Szeged, Hungary. He became interested in sculpture during his childhood, thanks to an encounter with a craftsman who made traditional marionettes inlaid in wood. He began as a stone carver at the Art Institute, where he studied the basics of sculpture and drawing. In 2001 he continued his studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Budapest. During this time he began to experiment with different materials and move in other directions, such as abstraction and constructivism. In 2018, he moved to Italy, where he works in a more classical style, combined with his personal artistic approach, using figurative elements as a starting point. She prefers the use of materials such as clay and plaster, Very often ancient motifs or signs appear in her works, emphasising the mysticism of the imaginative content. He lives and works in Bologna.
