Dorottya Balkó was the curator of Klaudia Januskó’s exhibition exploring the female identity

Date: 2023.06.23
According to the concept of the exhibition Her Body, Himself ? opened in June 2023 at Liget Gallery, female identity is built like a recipe.

“All that you need to make female identity are a large bowl and a single lifetime. First, combine examples passed down from your mother and grandmother, then add impersonal muses of poets and vaguely sketched archetypes from films and video games to the raw batter”, reads the synopsis of Klaudia Januskó’s solo exhibition, inspired by Walking Brains. Contemporary Feminist Discourse by Orsolya Drozdik, Is Woman an Animal? Posthuman Feminism in Visual Art and The Human Body by Gerda Széplaky, as well as the section on the preparation of meat in the Wikipedia article dealing with kitchen operations. 

Curated by Art and Design Management student Dorottya Balkó, the exhibition included objects, paintings, and video installations. The closing event of the exhibition also featured a related zine created by Dorottya Balkó, Orshi Drozdik, Mrs. Fajger née Andrea Dudás and Tayler Patrick.

This year, MOME product design students are debuting their work in Eindhoven as part of The Class of ’25 exhibition at Dutch Design Week. This international showcase celebrates the emerging talents of European design education, with sixteen higher education institutions taking part. Together, they highlight the vital role of design education in shaping the future and reveal how the next generation of designers think about social and environmental responsibility. The MOME projects are grouped around the distinctly Hungarian notion of “gógyi” – quick-witted, resourceful practical intelligence. Working across different scales and media, the students demonstrate how this mindset translates into contemporary product design.
