András Tábori and Támas Budha Kovács have been working together on various projects for eight years now. The main focus of the group is public squares, such as Urbannus Square. They regard these places as a storage area for freely usable medium for their work, where the try to express the relationship between the city life, and public areas. They seek to portray the ordinary truth within the hidden phenomena that occur within the urban areas.

“Some of the most characteristic drawings found on the walls of Budapest appear among our hand-knit pictures. The 1:1 size ratio copies of the the unique works required high amounts of precision, calculations and time, while they were entirely done using traditional knitting techniques. To create the required knitting patterns, photos of the originals were used, that is how the colourful knot-graphics were created.”
