Zsolt Berszán’s work speaks of repulsion and fascination and in the same time speaks about shapes that lie on the border between hallucination and obsession wherein the identity and order were disrupted. Themes such as the double and the metamorphosis, otherwise put, themes of atrophied characters are all representations of the abject. Berszán’s creation is located at the fine border between the representation of identity and its dissolution thusly aiming to represent the non-symbolized.

The dynamic separation and the transitional object are presented as parts of frozen bodies, parts of decaying corpses, both being are neither subject nor object. It is the representation of the slightest details of fluids that feature hardly mentionable elements that is outside the symbolic sequence of civilization and that disturbs social rules, trying to defy a traumatic experience. The trauma is the one that evokes both the awe and the terror, is the one that overwhelms the ego and resists transformation in itself.
