THE JOURNEY FROM ARCHITECTURE TO FINE ARTS
Attila Mate is a Hungarian artist, born in 1979 in Budapest. Finishing his architecture studies at university, he developed an interest towards the fine arts. Through his paintings he could experience a creative independence, free from any conventions. Most of his works of art are arranged into series based on the study of the subconscious. This can be comprehended as a kind of soul-painting.
