Igor Eugen Prokop (b. 1953) presents (2023), a seminal work in his ongoing exploration of biocentric philosophy and environmental concern. The title itself suggests a poignant shift, treating the reliable cycle of seasons as a cherished memory amidst global destruction, a theme born from Prokop’s travels witnessing dead corals and fragile Pacific ecosystems. As a highly decorated artist—recognised by the Biennale Leonardo Award and the Oxford University Alumni Society Award —Prokop demonstrates a masterful, intuitive technique. He uses acrylic on canvas to build complex, kinetic layers that evoke both cellular structures seen under a microscope and the vast, colourful ecosystems of the Cuban seas. Shipped rolled to ensure safety, this original piece is a profound convergence of science, philosophy, and abstract expression, ideal for the discerning collector seeking investment value and deep conceptual resonance.

Presentation
He was born in Budapest in 1953. He graduated from the Teacher Training College in Eger as a teacher of Biology and drawing in 1978. He studied Biology at Attila University of Arts between 1981 and 1983 in Szeged, then philosophy in 1984 in Budapest, film aesthetics in 1987 and between 1991 and 1993 he studied design at the University of Applied Arts. He studied and worked in New York, Heidelberg, Auckland and several other places of the world. Besides painting and drawing he has worked with glass as well for 20 years. The artist has gone through the phases of making lead-glass and tiffany. Fusing glass is the result of a more advanced technology. The process goes like this: the elements of glass coloured in the material are faceted with diamond burnishers and these pieces are melted together horizontally and vertically like a mosaic. The surfaces, panels and pictures reflect the natural forms seen during the author's trips through the eyes of a biologist-artist. His trips: - 1984 Cuba - 1985 Mongolia, Caucasus - 1989 USA, New York and Walhalla - 1993 Germany, Heidelberg - 1995 France, Paris - 1996 Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, Polinesia, USA - 1997 Ireland, Scotland - 1998 Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, USA - 1999 Ireland, Portugal, Madeira - 2000 Florida, Canada
