Artist
András Ladocsi
András Ladocsi’s (b. 1992) desire for seeking and finding the truth comes from the subject he observes. His works reassure and delight the viewer while they are also equally capable of making them uncomfortable.
In his photos, naturalism and realism are greatly anesthetized and organized into tight compositions. The works vibrate between an intimate and a more distanced approach. The artist’s intent to systematize and to create is unavoidably present in the pictures, but his neutral use of space and backgrounds being completely free from identity, provide adequate territory for the observer’s personal interpretation. His art also exhibits noticeable cohesion. This does not sprout from a labored stylistic mannerism but instead from the explicit and successful display of a distinct vision.
András Ladocsi was also nominated for Futures by Hyères Festival.

I work with the mediums of photography and film. During the university years I started to work with youth and emerging identities which is a concept I continue to present through my projects. My practice begins with research through my surroundings to find situations that I recreate in the self contained context of the gallery space. Through my works, I would like to explore pieces of truth in movements (physical, emotional and psychic), or to capture the honesty in the looks of my subjects. It can be a personal, even private truth, but it can refer to something absolutely universal at the same time.
