Attila Hrubos

As an emerging Hungarian artist recently established in Quebec, my arrival in this area was almost accidental. I discovered a deeply-rooted tradition of wood carving and became passionate about this material.

When I create objects I am aware of the responsibility that rests on my shoulders and the positive impact that I can have on the world. I work primarily with recovered wood, but also explore possibilities with all sorts of other materials. I aspire to prolong their lifespan and I love the idea of creating something beautiful with material that has been discarded. I prefer hand tools as they provide a unique character to my pieces.

Through my work, I wish to honour the creator's wisdom. Personally, I strive to become the best possible version of myself.
