Watercolourist Ágota Markovics art project documenting Hungarian women’s folk costumes across the Carpathian basin
Watercolourist Ágota Markovics (Art Agota) is working on a unique project depicting Hungarian women’s folk costumes in different regions across the Carpathian basin.
So far, six paintings have been completed, but the artist’s plan is to produce a series of paintings that consist of 30-40 pieces.
Each painting is 80 centimeters high and are conceived to be exhibited once the project is complete; later on the artworks will be published in an exclusive book format.
This is a one person project but the artist can’t finance it all by herself and she is looking for sponsors.

Her earlier book called “Halhatatlan halandó – Nemzetek örök kincse a nő” available HERE.
