After training as a graphic designer in Hungary, the visual artist Vera Székely (1919-1994), a member of the Székely-Borderie ceramists collective, worked with clay, metal, wood and glass, and came into her own with textiles.
From then on, Vera Székely admitted to “swimming and dancing in space to leave a trace” with her ephemeral installations of folded felt, her stretched canvas structures, her “armed sails”, which would be exhibited around the world, notably at the International Tapestry Biennial, Lausanne (1981) at the National Museum of Modern Art, the Georges Pompidou Centre (1982), at the Paris Museum of Modern Art (1985), and at Lunds Konsthall, Sweden (1988).
