Solo Exhibition at Quai de la Photo

I’ve been working on a really exciting project these past weeks, and I’m happy to finally share it with you.

I’m honored to present my project “Rencontres” in a solo exhibition at Quai de la Photo curated by Marion Briffod.

The opening is on July 24 at 6:30 PM, and the show will run until September 5.

Hope to see you there!

Résonance / Paris Exhibition for Fête de la musique

For the occasion of Fête de la Musique, I was invited to do a pop-up exhibition in Paris of my photographs of musicians at Le 18 Oberkampf beginning this Saturday. This exhibition brings together a selection of my work with musicians - from backstage moments to vinyl cover shoots, from Budapest to Paris, since 2010.
Some of the featured artists: Frenk, Nouvelle Vague, Budapest Bár, Carson Coma, Mélanie Pain, Nadeah, Kovacs

LOOKBOOK/ Vernissage / Kiscelli Museum / Budapest Photo Festival

LOOKBOOK, the featured group exhibition of the Budapest Photo Festival, opens on May 15 at the Kiscelli Museum, where, alongside the works of an incredible selection of artists, you’ll be able to flip through my photobook, which I hand-bound using the material I’ve developed so far for my Rencontres project.

The project has continued to grow since then, and I can’t wait to share even more of it with you.

DAS FANNI Collab / Launch Event and Pop-up Exhibition

This is what it was like a week ago at the Das Fanni Kimono atelier with Míra Anna Finta and Borbála Ilona Szikora. I loved the atmosphere we created, I hope you did too. It was a great experience to see the interest in the kimonos that were born from our collaborative project, and I’m very grateful for your interest in my work on the walls too. I presented one of my projects in installation form for the first time, so these conversations and your feedback were especially important to me.

Fanni’s studio is an inspiring little haven for this kind of experimentation, and I’m thankful I could inhabit it with my personal stories for a few days. My favorite comment of the evening came from my friend Réka Kóti: “You guys really created a safe space.”

DAS FANNI KIMONO X KATALIN SZÁRAZ COLLAB

Tonight, a showroom, exhibition, performance, and a toast await you at 5 Klauzál Square. Come and immerse yourselves with us in this project, which began a few months ago in Paris ⋆.˚ ☾⭒.˚

We’re looking forward to seeing you, together with Das Fanni Kimono and Míra Anna Finta ˙⋆✮

This is also the first time I’m presenting my long-evolving personal project, La fille du marin, in an installation format. It is closely connected to the collaboration - if you come, you’ll see how ⋆.˚

Budapest Photo Festival / CROSSROADS/ KULT7 Galéria

Happy moments from my first vernissage at the Budapest Photo Festival this year. It was a pleasure to share the story of my installation with so many new people. As the years go by, the meaning of this work feels even more relevant and deeper. You can still visit it until April 18 at KULT7 Galéria ⋆.˚ ☾ .⭒˚

P.S: You can discover on the photo a little sneak peek from our collab with Das Fanni Kimono, I will share more of our event too.

Analog Sparks Finissage

I don’t feel like writing a big year summary of 2025, so I’ll just leave one of my favourite moments from the end of December here, hoping it will attract even more moments like this in 2026.

I was talking about my project "Rencontres" at the finissage of our group exhibition for the Analog Sparks Film Photography Awards at House of Lucie Budapest.

I still can’t highlight enough how important these occasions are, and the conversations they bring afterward. This project connects me with people not only during the sessions themselves, but also through these events. Your questions and enthusiasm during these discussions are always fuel to keep me going. I’m also always happy to be present in Hungary with my work. So yes, I hope this year will bring many more occasions like this.

Capa Center/Memories

Yesterday marked 12 years since the Capa Center opened its doors in Budapest, and I was given one of the best locations for this installation, which has been resurfacing here and there ever since, and I hope it will continue to do so.

Analog Sparks International Film Photography Awards

I’m happy to share that my series received a Silver at the Analog Sparks Film Photography Awards

This ongoing project started as a way to connect while living abroad. Since 2016, I’ve been photographing foreign women in Paris in their homes - women who, like me, are finding their way in a place far from home. It is a slow project that keeps growing with time, and I’m truly grateful to every woman who has shared her story with me.

You can see more about the series on the Analog Sparks site here.

Fisheye Magazine article of my project

I think, no one has ever written such a perceptive and expressive article about my work before. Thank you so much, Lou Tsatsas.

This means a lot to me, as I've been working on this personal project for years, it's still in progress, and it's the first time it's being published. Fisheye Magazine is one of my main sources for contemporary photography, so seeing my pictures on their site is a true honor.

You can read the article here.

ARE WE THERE YET? HOW MUCH LEFT FOR LANDING? // Collaborative exhibition with Maria Siorba

We warmly invite all of you to our joint collaborative exhibition with my friend and colleague, Maria Siorba. Since we met in 2017, our shared wavelength was obvious, and after many conversations and extensive planning, you can now be part of our first collaboration here in Hungary. This exhibition emerged from the cohesion of two independently yet almost simultaneously developing projects, in communication with each other. It is a particular joy for me that Foton Galéria can be a playground for realizing an idea I have cherished since 2018, and I have been able to harmonize all of this with Maria's beautiful pictures.

Come and celebrate with us on the 29th of Wednesday, from 7 PM onwards!
