The subject of Tamas Dezsö's works is human and non-human, plant identity, as well as man's relationship to the environment, to nature, i.e. to the non-human. Through a variety of art forms and media - including photographs, sculptures, kinetic works, installations - and with a strong theoretical background and research, he formulates the questions and problems that the ecological crisis, the impending climate catastrophe, i.e. our Anthropocene age raises very sharply. Each of his works is a problematization, which takes shape through the sensual image or reality of an Azorean forest, a hedge, the world's smallest insect, a piece of a 4.6 billion year old meteorite, 19th century botanical microscope slides or even metronomes. Dezsö's works show the end of man's planetary domination, man's blindness to everything that is not him, and the essentially unknown, silent world of the non-human.
