Wall hangings from collage of dyed and printed fabrics. In some of the works Bela uses her photographs which she prints onto the material. The burning trees in the accompanying video were filmed by her.
Bela uses dyed fabrics as an artist uses a brush. The wall-hanging is the finished painting.
The 2006 war, which led to forest fires all around her home had a huge influence on her, and this is reflected in her work since then.
