About the artist

László Gábor Belicza (1991) is a photographer who graduated from the University of Kaposvár in 2016. His work is characterized by deep empathy, personal involvement, and quiet, humble observation. For him, photography is not merely about image-making, but a sensitive exploration of the relationship between human beings and the world.

His first series, Whole (2012–2016), focused on the theme of grief, based on personal family experience. This was followed by The Sky Above Kóspallag (2020–2024), which explored the possibilities of coexistence between humans and nature through the everyday life of a small village in the Börzsöny region. His ongoing project, Mária’s Garden (from 2022), shifts to an urban context, portraying a permaculture school garden as a lens to examine sustainability and adaptation.

His diary-like photo essays and subjective visual approach represent a distinctive and unique voice in contemporary Hungarian photography. His works are primarily realized in the form of photobooks. Belicza’s photographs are part of the collections of the Rippl-Rónai Museum, the Kunsthalle (Műcsarnok), the Herman Ottó Museum, the Petőfi Literary Museum, and the Hungarian Museum of Photography.
