Bokeh

Those peculiar times, when, for a while, everything becomes blurry…

A symphony of unseen forms and emotional landscapes

In this evocative black and white analog photography series, Szabo delves into the realm of abstraction, pushing the boundaries of visual perception. Each image is a study in enigmatic shapes, rendered through deliberate unsharpness and a rich tapestry of grayscale tones.

Shifting away from traditional clarity, the deliberate blur and generous embrace of bokeh transform ordinary scenes into a mesmerizing array of tones and shapes, inviting viewers to surrender to the poetic ambiguity of form and tone.

This collection is a celebration of the unseen—a journey into the mysterious interplay of light and shadow, where the boundaries of reality blur and imagination takes flight.

Embarking on a visual exploration inspired by the delicate dance between emotional turbulence and creative emergence, each photograph mirrors moments when imbalance disrupts clarity.

Far from a disorienting chaos, the deliberate unsharpness becomes a metaphor for times when vision is obscured, revealing shapes and forms from the beauty within uncertainty.

As light and shadow intertwine, grayscale tones evoke the ebb and flow of emotions, creating an immersive experience that resonates with the viewer’s introspective journey.

This series is a visual narrative capturing the transformative beauty as abstract notions materialize into tangible, concrete expressions, highlighting the exciting and liberating nature of uncertainty.

Inspired by avant-garde spirit and abstract expressionism, akin to photographers like Aaron Siskind, this black and white analog photography series delves into a realm where emotional turbulence meets creative emergence.

Echoing the principles championed by Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, rooted in Szabo’s Hungarian heritage, the collection embraces the spirit of uncertainty and the dance of light and shadow.

Inspired by the legacy of iconic photographers, the body of work in ‘Bokeh’ transforms captured moments into ethereal paintings.

While rooted in the rich heritage of those who came before, the photographs transcend mere echoes, presenting a visual symphony where subjects, though present, elude identification, inviting viewers to explore uncharted realms where each image becomes a canvas of mystery and emotion.

In pushing the boundaries of abstraction, ‘Bokeh’ not only pays homage to the past but unveils a new chapter, where familiar influences converge with an innovative lens, birthing a collection that stands as a testament to the unseen, a fusion of tradition and contemporary expression.
