Kund Kopacz (Hungary)
Artists statement
Kund Kopacz’s works span across a spectrum of mediums ranging from photography, video, sculpture to installation art in natural environments. He seeks intervening in natural, urban and rural contexts by creating awkward situations, that reflect on global phenomenas present in-situ with a locally specific twist. Using bitter humour, he tries to highlight the fuzzy logic of humans in the era of the anthropocene.
