About

‘Terra Firma’ is the first UK exhibition of emerging Hungarian artist Barbara Mihályi. ‘Terra Firma’ means solid earth; the earth beneath our feet, a sense of longing and belonging to a place. The exhibition brings together a collection of photographs and video blogs produced during Barbara’s residency in Birmingham.

Barbara Mihályi is an emerging Hungarian artist, filmmaker and photographer. A graduate of the Hungarian University of Fine Art, she currently lives and works in Padova near Venice, Italy. Barbara works in photography and video with a playful and seductive style that overcomes the boundaries of the lens and speaks to you in a way only a friend could; honest, critical and caring. Barbara’s work is often personal; her project documenting the ups and downs of her recently diagnosed illness received critical acclaim and was featured in this year’s Best of Diploma exhibition at the Hungarian University of Fine Art. For her most recent solo show ‘Where did you come from?’ at Ericcson Gallery Barbara examined through numerous interviews with her friends living abroad how we survive and thrive away from home. Other exhibitions include her first solo show ‘ilovenoses’ in 2015 at Telep Gallery and group exhibition ‘Your behaviour is your responsibility not the photographer’s’ in 2014 also at Telep.
