János Pilinszky: Transformation
Poster design, 2021.
Our world is in crisis because we are losing ‘Love and Forgiveness’ over our desires. Greed leads us not to trust and care for our neighbors and livings in the world. This exhibition is a collection of the messages — Love and Forgiveness — to realize our coexistence in this fragile world. Each nation and culture have positive quotations about ‘Love and Forgiveness’ designed to better understand themselves as responsible citizens in society. These unique posters represent those cultural quotations around the world. Each designer expresses the message through the typography of their writing system.
Most importantly, all participants share their kindness with a good heart. All visitors will realize our existence in the world from the exhibition of the designers’ personal experiences. Furthermore, we hope that both designers and visitors will practice ‘Love and Forgiveness’ to make this world a safe and harmonious place for us and our next generation.
Pilinszky János: Átváltozás
„Rossz voltam, s te azt mondtad, jó vagyok.
Csúf, de te gyönyörűnek találtál.
Végig hallgattad mindig, amit mondtam.
Halandóból így lettem halhatatlan.”

János Pilinszky: Transformation
“I was bad and you said I was good.
Ugly, but you found it beautiful.
You always listened to what I said.
I thus became immortal from mortal.”
