Zsuzsanna Györgyövics

Born in Budapest in 1969 and raised in a small village surrounded by forests and biodiversity, Zsuzsanna developed an intimate relationship with the natural world from an early age. Trees, ever-present in her childhood, became the core of her artistic practice: “a source of life," as she describes — offering protection, sustenance, emotion, and transformation.

Now based in Hungary, she sculpts trees from wire, using a meticulous and unmistakable technique. What began as small pieces evolved into large-scale works that can reach up to 2.5 meters in width and contain over 850 meters of hand-twisted iron wire. Each piece is built with almost meditative precision, where time and gesture are inseparable from the final form.

“The tree is the purest metaphor for existence: it changes, it dies, it is reborn. Just like us."

Through her three-dimensional and wall-mounted compositions, Zsuzsanna explores the cycle of seasons, the rhythms of nature, and their parallels with the human experience. Her sculptures evoke not only the physical presence of trees, but also their silent soul — roots that stretch into memory, trunks that hold stories, branches that reach toward the future.
