FLY FREE AND YOU'LL BE FREE

Fly free and you‘ll be free: Live life as it‘s good and as one has to live (Fresh) A mass of couple hundred thousand people, marching in extase during the day with techno music through the heart of Budapest. All in peace and joy regardless of their sex, gender, age, color, musical and sexual preferences. This scene might look completely utopistic from the perspective of our present, but it actually happened in couple following years in the early 2000s. However, it is not an uncommon thing in the history of humankind that people experience extase, liberty, joy through dance and music in together with other people. The project rave2000 is celebrating a bunch of these moments from the early 2000s Humgarian party scene. Using lost archives of then- mainstream party photography, I give new life to some of these pieces of early digital photos which never had an actual physical existence. I re-create these images using a special painting technique which I call human printer: this method combines digital, pixel-based image creation with methods of classic painting.
