Stációk 8.2

Lois Viktor (1950) became one of the most original representatives of the Hungarian visual art due to his extraordinary furniture, vehicle, body builder, and musical instrument sculptures put together from discarded metal objects or washing machine drums which evolved into his trademark. His latest series that focuses on human relations ‒ concretely the humiliation of a human by another one ‒ has been increasing and developing for ten years. Each of the exhibited eight pieces of the series includes a metal frame completed with a washing machine drum that can be brought into operation electronically by a button and a human-sized rough wooden sculpture fixed on it. If they start moving, the mobile part of the mechanical construction will touch the sculpture with a shaking and exploding way while it is using up the sculpture, which is indicated by tiny wood shavings gathering underneath. Spectators should recognise not only the consequences of pressing the button, but also their own responsibility for putting the mechanism into operation. Nevertheless, they get the chance to mediate on whether they have ever involved in any similar situations in their real lives and which side they would prefer.
