Statement
| Statement | Bercsek’s work reimagines consumption, using symbols and materials rich in memory and revitalizing potential. Through diverse mediums like installation, digital performance, textile, drawing, painting, and sculpture, she crafts the ordinary into reflections on identity, autonomy, and connection. Central to her research is the portrayal of women as complex, stereotype-defying figures, with pink creating tension around the paradoxes of lived experience. Her commitment to constant change, projections, and overflows shapes her concept of metahumans—giants who absorb and mutate everything in their path. This relentless force drives life beyond the individual, generating a surge of energy akin to a mega power plant. Fantasy, allegory, and delirium allow her to reinterpret symbolic codes, offering liberation and bending linear perceptions. Bercsek’s art engages with cycles of repetition, innovation, and obsolescence, navigating the interplay of opposing forces. It is a meditation on resilience, impermanence, and belonging in a world shaped by never-ending flux—urging us to embrace becoming while confronting the inherent dualities that define us. |
