The Parallel Threads exhibition evokes the memory of the creators of the former Art Nouveau Art Colony of Gödöllő.

The founder of the artist colony was Sándor Nagy, whose daughter, Laura Eszter, planted a chestnut as a child, which has now become an enormous chestnut tree that dominates the garden. The tree was thus born at the same time as the colony of artists, and as a witness to the lives of artists, it grows taller year by year. The growth of the inhabitants of the Nagy Sándor-house did not disappear without a trace: the upstairs studio still shows lines indicating their height, with names and dates.

​

With our installation, we want to connect human and natural growth, which,
although of different scales, is interrelated and parallel to each other.
On the floating annual ring surrounding the chestnut tree, visitors to the exhibition were able to record their height, which now rises further with the tree.
