After the Venice International Art Fair 2020 x BORDERS 2020 Festival / FUTURE LANDSCAPES exhibition finally Close Distance, a co-work by Mákó-sisters - sound designer Rozi Mákó and media artist Bori Mákó – is on view in a physical space in Budapest as well! The audiovisual composition was created during the period of voluntary home isolation, virtually bridging the physical distance and reflecting on each other's work. It is a melodized digital painting and a painted electronic music. Encounter of converging endpoints and planes, soundtracks and brushstrokes, in the air.

Bori MÁKÓ media artist, animation designer. She graduated from Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in 2017 and holds a master’s degree in animation. Her visual language represents different genres of digital painting and her exhibition portfolio includes large-scale prints, video installations and printed publications. Her visual language and digital landscapes remind us of David Hockney’s painted atmosphere. In addition to her artistic work, she takes part in television productions and animated film projects. She has been teaching digital paintings since 2019.
