I created a portrait of Imre Kertész, a Nobel Prize-winning Hungarian writer, in this painting. I exchanged the dark and light tones in the work, but retained the original skin color. If the photograph of the painting is inverted, the tones become suitable for the natural view, but the skin tone of the face takes on a bluish hue. Ultimately, when the inverted photo is turned into black and white, we obtain a completely realistic portrait. My goal was to use the technical possibilities of photography and digital imaging to shed light on the relativities of perception, differences in perspective, both literally and metaphorically.

My unattainable endeavor is to create complex artworks that capture a moment of reality yet bear timeless truths. Complexity encompasses not only the physical appearance but also the intellectual and emotional space. My paintings carry the reality of the photograph, the content of thought, and the color palette of the mood. This quest for truth can never reach a state of perfection because the world is constantly changing; what is true today may be false tomorrow. The painting is only seemingly constant, but in reality, it means something different every day. Perhaps truth is just an illusion, like an image? Perhaps yes, but the search for it is undoubtedly real.
