The FORK 4.0 // RECOVER_I exhibition is not only a milestone anniversary, but also a story of a personal and artistic rebirth. At 40 years old, after 25 years of graffiti and 20 years of working under the name FORK, the artist's work has come to life in 3D for the first time. This exhibition is a reinterpretation of the murals, object-making techniques and materials of the past, where a new dimension, infused with digital influences, has been born from the experiences of the past.
The material formed over five years - the by-products of three years of object-making and two years of concept-building - Fork in a unique digital effects/graffiti style. These unique spatial works are the result of the Kreativ Werk design studio and the subsequent Kreativ Werk 2.0 / KARMATIK were born within the walls of the city, out of a duality of sorrow and hope. All the works are made of scrap wood and plexiglass, material to be thrown away, so that they are both a mixture of decay and rebirth.
The Bäse The exhibition on two floors of the Creative Clubhouse opened the doors not only to physical space but also to a fourth dimension at the frontiers of the digital world. On the ground floor, paintings and objects were displayed, while upstairs a 30-minute documentary film showed the creative process. The highlight of the event was a spectacular UV show and VJ projection, which rounded off the experience with a selection of scenes from his previous animations.
"Graffiti after 3D - the evolution of FORK."
The event also showcased fresh augmented reality canvas paintings - another side of Imre Fork that few have seen before.
Two guided tours - one public and one private - gave visitors a behind-the-scenes look at the 40-piece spatial experience. Several sponsors contributed to the event to bring the atmosphere and the visual world together. Thanks also to Dreher Breweries, Szuromi Birtok, Lajter Light Ltd. and SOUNDWORK studio!
