- “The finding of an identitary sound, is in the personal exhibition signed by the artist Péter Madaras, an occasion for visual research on the self and the forms through which the inner cosmos incarnates through the materiality of a pine tree. The transforming of textures and materials into a speech about spiritual and energetic rhythms, finds in the initiatic symbol of the Heart a different kind of alchemic catalyst. The Heart becomes a pretext of an artistic format through which organic and matter is searching for the spirit. A heart found under the symbolic power of the number five, a number that is suggesting us the subtle resonance between even and odd, between feminine and masculine, between senses and thought, between heavenly and earthly. All this in a formula, that isn't dichotomist at all, a representation of the cosmic principle of merger. The appeal to the visual poetry of the Heart is organic and authentic, it’s a space for breathing and wandering on the inside. The figurativeness and symmetry of some abstract contours complete the inner life, a life that is a wave and particle in the same time. The telluric transforms itself out of the need of exiting the contingent in order to ascend Above. The choice for the pine wood is necessary for the accumulation of plastic and existential tension, given by the identitary struggle between heaven and earth. The ideal can find itself an inner geography in and by the physical, mental and spiritual form of the Heart. The sculptures of Péter Madaras are well established islands of spiritual well being!” - Dan Mircea Cipariu
