Abstract

The main focus of Kovats’ presentation and work is how art mediates and communicates our experience of what we call ‘nature’, as viewed as a set of interconnected processes and systems. Kovats works across various platforms i ncluding sculptural works, drawings, writing, temporary and permanent works in the public realm. Increasingly her work addresses the environmental, ecological, and socio political implications of her subject alongside poetic and psychological aspects. More recently water is Kovats’ central focus, the seas and oceans, river systems, maritime culture, islands, coral bleaching, water pollution, flooding, tides, and the beauty of the horizon line.
