Rose Hill
A walk through Budapest’s districts II and XII. Both neighbourhoods are known for their gated homes, countless embassies and carry the highest land prices in the country. Located on the highest hills in the area, it houses Hungary’s diplomats, politicians, and the economic elite. As Hungary's government holds the EU at arm’s length, defending values of a time past, these spaces are a metaphorical mirror of that sentiment. Like a still fortress atop the highest vantage point, they feel physically and mentally removed from both city and country and the effects of these decisions.

Rose Hill
A visual meditation on the idea of home for anyone who has ever crossed borders in search of a new life. These photographs were taken during walks through two neighbourhoods in seperate countries, both in connection to the artist. They dwell on the desire to break free from one landscape while yearning to be anchored to another.
This series invites viewers to consider how identity is negotiated through place by searching for the physical traces that define it. Ultimately, the project asks a universal question: where do we locate a sense of belonging when our roots occupy different places?
