“The process of weaving is a timeless moment that has neither a beginning nor an end."From 1968 Marika Száraz worked at the Budapest Applied Arts Company as a tapestry weaver, weaving according to the plans of Endre Domanovszki and Gyula Hinz. She moved to Brussels in 1975, where she studied sculpture and textile restoration, and then graduated with a master's degree from ENSAV de la Cambre. She completed her studies at John Fitzgerald Kennedy University in San Francisco with a Belgian scholarship.
Marika Száraz's experience in tapestry weaving influenced her entire creative life, and during her university years the relationship between the surface and the shape of the woven fabric became her main subject of research. She experimented with a new technique that allows the shape of the tapestry to be modified in an infinite number of possibilities, both rounded and square. By changing the shapes, the parallel lines of the warp threads also change direction and create new planes; through the reflection of light, these planes acquire metamorphosed colors.
