Szabolcs Bozó’s fluid approach to painting and drawing encapsulates the freedom of youth with refreshing honesty. The energetic creatures morph between human, animal and friendly monster, often with multiple heads and limbs. The self-taught artist has a profoundly intuitive understanding of colour. Despite using single-colour blocks, each one is brimming with variations in texture and tonality: wide repetitive brushstrokes are set against brisk lines added with oil stick along with thick dollops of paint which shine lustrously as if freshly squeezed from the tube. When painting on canvas, Bozó works on the floor, meaning footprints and accidental smudges are left on the surface. These ‘imperfections’ are integral to his practice.
