- Nagy-nagy szeretettel gratulalunk ehhez a nagyszeru sikerhez, de mindenek elott a megrazo hangulatu kephez, amely igazan melto arra, hogy a legjobbak egyikekent kerult kiemelesre a palyazati tomegbol. Letisztultan egyszeru eszkoztaraval, s nem utolso sorban filozofikus melysegu cimevel rendkivul mely emberi tartalmat hordoz. Szamomra leginkabb az elet viszontagsagat es buktatoit szinte vakito tisztasaggal vegigkuzdott, a vegso ismeretlen sotetseg fele sodrodo, abban mar felig elmerult, sorsaval megbekelt embert szimbolizalja. A kepet egyfajta eteri nyugalom lengi korul, a megvaltoztathatatlan kozeli vegzethez vezeto fenyut visszafogott vibralasaval. A kep gondolatisagaval messze kiemelkedik a kategoria mezonyebol, ahol tulnyomo tobbsegben az absztrakt formakkal valo oncelu vizualis jatszadozas a jellemzo. Mondhatnam ugy is, hogy mely filozofiai tartalmaval a te keped baratom ugyancsak feszegeti a kategoria hatarait. (Dr. Horvath Gyozo)
