Represented artist
Kis-Prumik Zoltán
festészet
A painter who incorporates architectural building materials and everyday residential environment elements into his work.
Zoltán Kis‑Prumik (Cegléd, 1992.) takes the starting point of his painting practice from the fundamental materials recognisable in architecture and the everyday elements of the built environment, elevating them into art. Most of his works are based on ordinary construction materials, and he experiments with the striking use of plaster on canvas, giving his paintings a quasi‑wall effect.
Their surfaces are often rustic, sometimes striking more forcefully with a sculptural flair, other times merely signalling, simply for the thrill of the material itself. They often draw inspiration from the sight of crumbling, dirty plaster appearing step‑by‑step on the streets. The weary colours and quiet themes that appear in their works are all echoes of the public mood that has lingered with us from the early 1990s to the early 2000s. Their creations paint tools that have disempowered humanity.
He calls them exhausted objects, their condition only hinting at their former usefulness. On his canvases the broken and twisted forms now lie scattered, yet they occupy the centre, while the background is usually more subdued, painterly.
The drama surrounding these objects interests the artist: as they cease to serve humanity, they also lose their appreciation.
