Ménière

Ana Maria Szőllősi
6.02 – 25.04.2026
Opening: February 6th, 7:00 PM

There are no definitions in the face of color. Painting can offer mediation. The space around us is a sensation. The horizon line is a balance. Prosper Ménière describes vertigo as a state whose source lies outside the human mind, the ear also being an organ of balance. Not everything we see needs to be understood, yet at times we need color in order to do so. Color is another way of transcribing human intelligence.

There are countless imbalances created by our presence in space. What defines this presence? Ana Maria Sz describes space without the aid of linear perspective; the elements specific to an rchitectural epure are rethought as a logic of reinvented color.

Ana Maria Szőllősi lives and works in Timișoara. She graduated from the Faculty of Arts and Design, receiving study scholarships at the Jan Matejko Academy of Fine Arts in Poland and at Aristotle University in Greece, as well as completing an internship at the Diocesan Museum in Barcelona. Working predominantly with abstract painting, the artist uses this medium to translate dreamlike elements and subconscious content into spatial form. In her works, symbols appear as clues to the ideas and states being explored. This way of articulating space through painting becomes a means of access to a personal plane, from which she observes the surrounding environment and defines her own relationship to it.
