SAROLTA BAN
Photo Manipulation / Photomedia Artist
ARTIST STATEMENT
“I was born in 1982 in Budapest, Hungary. Originally I’m a jewellery
designer, later I discovered digital photo manipulation and it became
my passion and main activity. I like using ordinary elements and by
combining them, I can give them various stories, personalities. I hope
that the meanings of my pictures are never too limited, are open in
some way, each viewer can transform them into a personal aspect. I’m
not so good at talking about myself, I prefer to let the pictures talk.”

among others.
