Description
Keleti Station re-creates the Budapest train station in where thousands of refugees, many from Syria and Afghanistan, were stranded on their way to Germany, Sweden, and other European destinations during September 2015 when Hungarian authorities shut down Budapest?s Keleti Railway Station, denying refugees with tickets access to the trains.
The installation was created over the course of eight days on-site in the Real Room at Real Art Ways with classically prepared egg tempera.
Set in the underground transit zones of Budapest?s Keleti Railway Station, this work is a composite of images and accounts of the West Balkan migration route taken from traditional and social media during that period, including anti- and pro-migrant graffiti and disparate first-hand accounts.

Artist Statement:
I began a series of contemporary miniature paintings and large installations chronicling the events unfolding in the Middle East and North Africa region and their representation in Western media in 2012 following the onset of the 'Arab Spring.'
Our digital landscape puts us in contact with a sea of fragmented and stratified documentations that come forth on social media platforms filtered by chance as well as by multiple, calculated and unknowable internal dialectics and interests.
My work samples and combines imagery and information from this multitude of raw-footage, photographs and documentary snippets, as well as from traditional media outlets, reflecting both a fragmented understanding of these accounts and the conscious and unconscious attempts to recompose a potential reality.
