I AM A PROUD HUNGARIAN - URBAN SERIES BY DAKINI.HU - HU - SINCE 1995

 Dear Friends!



All knowledge starts with your Roots.


I received a perfect education in my country.


I had wonderful teachers who taught me how to think.


Everyone should be grateful who was lucky as I  to receive proper education in their countries,


have enough to eat, playground to play, parents to raise up.


Not every child is so lucky as I was.


So place your hands to your heart and say I am a proud citizen of... and say your country.


If you immigrated to have these say proudly your birth town and your second home name.


Be positive and grateful.


Every day you wake up thinking about the blessings you received from your roots.

Info about URBAN series


Urban series are depicting the multicolor vibration of metropolises with humor and a bit of sarcasm, personal responses for happenings of urban society.

The latest urban series depicting New York and local themes connected to Hungarian and European culture, like famous inventions and musicians, composers of Hungary, exploring the famous Hungarian genes...
„ New York …a metropolis noisy, lively, extremely rushy. The experience of the rhythm of this city was a great inspiration for me in creating from the 2009 urban series „ New York”…

In this new artwork NO CODE II.: there is an extra hint about the huge control by mass media as intense urban pollution, electrical, chemical pollution, etc... the limit of pollution in the city is a never-ending story.

My previous Urban series was created  about Paris and Hungarian suburbs while  I lived  8 months in Paris 1996-97…Why I like the urban theme is for a special discovery in colors and  shapes and techniques,  as an artistic challenge dealing with: „the order in chaos- and chaos in order.”

Just a short note about the previous urban theme  „Urban jungle, Paris, and suburb” Urban jungle of metropolis itself is such an exciting theme: Skyscrapers, urban radiation, and city rush with neon lights, the monochrome tones of the city have a special characteristic for me I considered worth depicting on canvas. In Paris, I painted two series: Eiffel and Notre Dame using the rhythm of black and white and also the vibration of colors: it was for me the voice of the city and truly was a sensational and exciting topic.
I especially do love and felt inspired by Piet Mondrian’s abstract series „broadway boogie-woogie” as a start for my Urban series.

Urban paintings -  depicting urban life with figurative elements.
For keeping fresh and innovative all my artworks and my artistic style main concept is: „Drop your concepts!”

The whole collection of urban series was exhibited in Witten, Germany in 2013
