Gyula Sági is a young Hungarian artist who studied visual arts and graduated at the University of Western Hungary in 2010. He lives and works in Berlin and takes part in solo and group shows both in Hungary and abroad.
Sági creates his large-scale paper works with ink, pencil, and ballpoint pen, and combines traditional graphical and painting techniques. His series, unifying geometric abstraction and gesture painting, are experiments with forms. He concentrates on the pure formations of things, finding inspiration in the technology, digital imaging and repetitive structural systems created by nature.
In his works in the early 2010s, Sági sought to synthetize visual languages of geometric and organic abstraction. In the series entitled Analog Noise and Parallel Line that began in 2016, the artist is interested in the imaging of the time, and in the patterns produced by “failures” in the process of repeating signs. From the same year, in the series of Geometric Structures, recurring lines and geometric structures are interrupted by colored abstract patterns.
“Conceptuality is just as important to me as the aesthetic result: what interests me is the physical dimension of time and the visual representation of the change of time based on a given algorithm. My working method starts with an analysis, formulation of a problem which is then going to be dissected, taken into pieces. After this procedure by using the visuality of my previous works, I synthesise the sections. I consider this construction as if I would solve a mathematical equation, the number of unknowns increases with this game and the complexity of equations becomes gradually settled in my works.” Gyula Sági
“Energy, repetition, order, and disorder are the main principles of the Universe. So I chose them to be the basis of my working methods. My works are sensitive gesture “paintings” and, due to their repetitive technique, meditative tools for me.” Gyula Sági
