I treated the words as letters. I removed the spaces, equalized the distances, so the meaningful and weighted poetic lines were transformed into a letter picture.

18 concrete loaves in the space. The bread had bread labels considered „hungarikum” (Hungary-specific item) – now regulated – with poems by Dezső Tandori. I treated the words as letters. I removed the spaces, equalized the distances, so the meaningful and weighted poetic lines were transformed into a letter picture. The picture can later be reassembled into words and lines. Everywhere in the arrangement, I mostly deal with gaps and pauses.

I put each loaf on a 1 kg pile of flour. I consider this as a starting material, which is transformed with the help of a catalyst and at the end of a process, it manifests itself in a new, higher quality. The viewer, like yeast, initiates the process and the passage of the ”baking” time.

18 pcs. of concrete bread, in a protective net, with Koan poems by Dezső Tandori on the labels, placed on a 1-kg circle of flour.
