Artist Statement:
The “way of black” for me is by all means connected to cognition, which I see as an amoeba without any tangible shape as it is continuously in motion. The “way of black” is one extension of this ever-changing, shapeless shape. This is where I muscled in, this is what my works are intended to map, conceptualize, investigate, penetrate, rend open, and mold. In other words, to learn, to know—and thus to change.
If we postulate the presence or absence of light as a part of relating to the world, black is connected to darkness. But—since black also appears through light, in light—for me it established wholly different connections. In reality, I am interested in the relationship between blackness and light. I do not believe a kind of darkening is stressed here, but it is a fact that black makes a totally distinct world appear.
It is hard to verbally formulate the internal and external changes that led to this. That’s why I used the term “a rule of nature”: here we have an intuition, a feeling rather than a change traceable in the form of cause and effect. ...

Welcome to Zsolt Berszan's Portfolio. The “way of black” for me is by all means connected to cognition, which I see as an amoeba without any tangible shape as it is continuously in motion.
