-„Péter Madaras in his all-time sculptures uses the over-simple and at the same time the most universal forms and symbols. He holds onto them even if these are the most used up ones. The essence of his art, I can even say, its heroism, lies exactly therein, that he fills these forms and signs which most of the times are sacrificed on the altars of dastardly goals, and are usually advertised for mass-produced articles, with new content and spirituality, furthermore with minimal tool usage: like the composition that can respect the ancient meaning of signs and archetypes too, and can adjust to the given cultural context, the well chosen sizes and proportions, as well as the simple but sensitive altering of the surface. The sculptures here exhibited constructed of stylized heart shape, are able to give something elementary human to the seer and the non-seer alike. His sculptures in my subjective reading are the proclaimers of the infant-parent sensuality and the love fulfilled in lusciousness.”- Vécsi Nagy Zoltán
