Dóra Földes’ work is deeply rooted in eco-mysticism, exploring the living essence of nature through abstract, symbolic landscapes and figurative forms. Her paintings reflect a profound sense of gratitude, tranquility, and reverence for the natural world, capturing its unseen energies and quiet wisdom.

Inspired by the rhythms and interconnectedness of nature, the artist translates its spirit into organic shapes and fluid compositions. She sees her practice as a form of communion—her paintings as an expression of nature’s vitality and mystery.

Each piece invites the viewer into a contemplative space where landscapes, figures, and abstract forms merge to create a world where nature is alive and animated, offering a quiet moment of reflection and connection..

In both its source and simplicity of process, her work democratise art: reflecting the artist's fascination with art created outside of the boundaries of the established art world. Given the origins of her work, Dora Foldes coins the term insider art to interpret her creations rooting in the exploration of the unity of the Self and the natural world. In a constant quest of a safer place, her work contemplates the elemental beauty of life.

Taking an observant's point of view, the artist depicts our world from a star's eye perspective and sheds light on some of its overlooked corners of happiness.
