About
Patrícia Koroknai (born 1995, Hungary) graduated from the University of Debrecen in 2019 with a Bachelor's degree in Sociology. She recently completed her Master's degree in Photography at the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Budapest. Patrícia's works are mostly experimental focusing on the psychological and philosophical aspects of existence.
What is the inherent meaning of our lives? Confronting the meaninglessness of our lives and not finding purpose can result in inner chaos, constant confusion, despair, and a sense of worthlessness that alters one’s perception, emotions, and daily experiences. If this condition persists, an existential crisis can arise, causing constant feelings of anxiety and often leading to depression. This series intends to deal not only with depression, but also with the consequences of seeing life as meaningless, or with the confusion caused by meaninglessness. The photographs depict seemingly never-ending conflict resulting in frustration and distortion of the accepted view of the physical world. The abstract works represent the inner relationship between the mind and emotions, and the difficulties of human existence. It is a subjective perception and contemplation about a life without meaning.
