Fruzsina Siklódy’s works focus on the relationship between man and his built environment – especially how man leaves an imprint in space and how his presence is reflected precisely through absence. Abandoned or transforming spaces – furniture, structures, layouts – carry the feeling of human presence, moods of waiting, hiding and passing.

The work of Fruzsina Erzsébet Siklódi focuses on concrete buildings left behind by socialism, whose stylized, constructive design and raw materiality evoke the aesthetics of brutalism. These structures are not only the visual and ideological imprints of a bygone era, but also the subjects of reflections on today’s world: they are under constant reinterpretation in their function, meaning and spatial role.

The depicted spaces and buildings take on a sacral character through their monumentality, which can be reinterpreted as spaces of contemplation, meditation and inner reflection. The concepts of space and time appear as parallel planes in the works: in the frozen moments, the tension between being and not being becomes perceptible. Starting from the elements of reality, abstract spaces are created where objects become carriers of memory and inner reflection placed in a new context.
