ESSAY FOR THE EXHIBITION
by
MELINDA GÉGER
art historian
Originally an architect, then an extraordinary creative textile artist, Zsuzsa Szűts creates her wall tapestries using plush, faux fur, polyester fabrics, and barbed wire. These textiles, which focus on plasticity and the tactile experience, explore various life processes - growth, splitting, opening, bulging - often charged with eroticism and surreal dimensions, while also appearing as bizarre fragments of a sparklingly cheerful, life-filled fantasy world (No Rose Without Thorns I–III). The artist practices an ironic deconstruction of feminine stereotypes and bodily experiences. The lush, soft surface of the garish pink faux fur evokes eroticism, femininity, and the artificial beauty cult, while the barbed wire stretched between them suggests pain, the struggle with social expectations, and even bodily and emotional wounds. The forms referring to the body, desire, and gender identity appear not directly, but as symbolic codes. Szűts’s series is a visual metaphor of female experience—at once beautiful and painful, desirable and dangerous.
