Biography
Fruzsina Bognár (born in Veszprém, Hungary) is a Berlin-based artist. Working primarily with oil paint, she uses multiple layers of light washes to create evocative, dreamlike compositions. Her work often explores themes of disconnection, depicting figures who share the same space but fail to see or recognize one another, reflecting on the fragile boundaries of identity within a larger community.
Bognar’s cinematic approach is rooted in her time as a member of P’andiciel, an artist collective in Budapest known for staging anarcho-fashion shows and contemporary surrealist variety performances. This experience informs her practice, where she directs scenes in her paintings to evoke a sense of narrative and emotion. Her works are biographical, often using surrealistic, theatrical elements to examine the universality of her personal experiences.
Since 2024, she has been a resident artist at Burnt Sienna Art School and has participated in group exhibitions in Berlin.
