"When we claim to be able to observe something, what we should really be saying is that we are assuming that the laws up to now work reliably on the way from the phenomenon to our consciousness." - Werner Heisenberg
"His creations are about the possible ways of perceiving reality, the refutation of movement, progress, space and time, upside-down systems and ways of thinking. His works show real movements in time and space that prove scientific claims or show their impossibility. In his life's work, we can observe a kind of continuous movement, development and scientific deepening. He creates his kinetic works in space, which operate according to a specific temporal system and dynamism. He is able to make complex scientific theses or philosophical statements pictorially acceptable. Delving into the tenets and texts behind the works may help the reception of the works, but they also provide an experience without this, on their own. From the various approaches, everyone can find the visually displayed slice of science, literature or philosophy that they can take with them as their own recognition when looking at the works." – Réka Fazakas
