Munkácsy Award winning
Hungarian sculptor,
medal maker, art teacher
"Geometric sculpture is sculpture seeking to express an amorphous thing by means of geometric forms; that is, to
cram an inanimate thing into a lifeless (crystal) structure. I represent the opposite trend: I seek to elicit animate behaviour in an inanimate structure."
From Károly Ócsai's diary,
2000s
