Throwback 1997- 2001- EK University BVA/ BFA 🌸🌸
Dear Friends!
The whole 4 years of study at the department of drawing and visual communication,
art teacher training college at EK University,
was a "traveling" in between historical and artistic styles for me.
I started my travel and experiments in prehistoric times or even in Atlantis era
and the next month I found myself in zen and painting in Japanese style.
Finally, I decided to create my final exams' artworks and written the essay and research study in the spirit of zen calligraphy and its deep impact on modern American and Western abstract painters.

Krisztina Asztalos has been painting since 1989, graduated with honor as graphic art and visual communication teacher in 2001, Hungary. As a fine artist, painter her paintings have been exhibited in solo and international group shows in Europe, Asia, Africa, United States. The main concept of her art: 5 elements - Earth, Fire, Water, Air, Space. Her artworks are inspired by eastern calligraphy, nature, and human nature. Used techniques: paper and ink, gouache, watercolor, ink, acrylic, mixed media on canvas, on wood. Her macro-sized 2- 3 m long ink paintings "Aqua" series are bringing a certain feeling of special and great dimensions. "Urban" series are depicting the multicolor vibration of metropolises with humor and a bit of sarcasm, personal responses for happenings of urban society. Each piece of element paintings is like a part of a mosaic, depicting macro (earth- fire-air-water-space) and microelements (human and urban life ). My aim to depict the fabulous diversity and profusion of our universe.
ARTIST STATEMENT "My paintings depicting nature: that surrounds us, the micro-and macro cosmos and human nature that is like immense space. Human is like space, forever changing energy fields: atoms as our blood circulation, as galaxies originate and stars decline, floating into ash inside. We are, as ash of stars, transmitting light...

Shintoism:
"Shinto is polytheistic and revolves around the kami ("gods" or "spirits"), supernatural entities believed to inhabit all things. The link between the kami and the natural world has led to Shinto being considered animistic and pantheistic. The kami are worshiped at kamidana household shrines, family shrines, and public shrines. The latter is staffed by priests, known as kannushi, who oversee offerings of food and drink to the specific kami enshrined at that location. This is done to cultivate harmony between humans and kami and to solicit the latter's blessing. Other common rituals include the kagura ritual dances, rites of passage, and seasonal festivals. Public shrines also supply religious paraphernalia such as amulets to the religion's adherents. Shinto does not emphasize specific moral codes although it places a major conceptual focus on ensuring purity, largely by cleaning practices such as ritual washing and bathing. Shinto has no single creator or specific doctrinal text, but exists in a diverse range of localized and regional forms."
