From Fake Mountains to Faith (Hungarian Trilogy) investigates political communities as complicatedly constructed entities. Departing from the current authoritarian Hungarian state policy and the creation of ‘illiberal democracy’, the work examines institutional and historical narratives while looking at the shifting political and public perspective on trauma and memory.
Budapest-based artist and cultural activist Szabolcs KissPál works in the intersection of new media, visual arts and social issues with a strong focus on the ideological manipulation of history and misused national symbolism in the public and political discourse.
