BIO:

Borbala was born is Hungary and now lives and work in Basel, Switzerland. She is a mixed medium painter whose colourful works include the use of oil paint, oil pastels, acryl, aquarelle, and ink. This merging of painting techniques allows colors and lines to take persistent on the overall image. Borbala describes that in her practice, she focuses on the colours and how they affect her. 

Borbala has moved places many times and has lacked a sense of permanence in her life. She uses her art and the act of painting to find comfort in unfamiliar places. “For me creating art is a way of finding my inner home. As long as I am surrounded by my paintings, I feel at home,” says Borbala. 
The young artist paints almost entirely people. She then uses colour to depict the certain moods or traits on the somewhat abstract human faces. Borbala also represents faces based on her current attitude or her feelings towards the person that she is painting. She believes that the use of different colours is sometimes a better and more meaningful way to describe a person than words.
