Art Exhibitions
May-May is trying to pass on God's messages with all that she does. Via photos which she makes with her mobile phone, she tries to capture the world as God shows it to her. She makes photos of God's light or asks others to photograph her with the light. Her art can be categorized as ''sacred art or spiritual art'' and as ''art brut or outsider art'". Sacred art refers to her connection with God. Art brut and outsider art refer to her vulnerability for psychosis.
God is with us. He is sending peace and love. He want us to have world peace and end of hunger. To take care of vulnerable people, animals and our planet. May we see soon: A World in Which All Children Can Play.
PS Since my photos are made with help of God and many others, they are public art. A gift.

Paris Art Fair
Carrousel du Louvre
Curator: Heinz Playner, Paks gallery
Photo: Cherish Life
May-May went to the sea with her father in September 2023. The sunlight shone dazzlingly across the seawater. A father was playing in the sea with his young child, while holding it tightly. The atmosphere was peaceful and harmonious. May-May asked her father to photograph her with the light, not expecting anything special. When she saw the photo, she noticed the young father embracing his child. She felt as if God was empowering her message to cherish life and to facilitate world peace. To love one another – especially the children - and to care for nature.

Photo "God's Light from heaven"
May-May met a homeless man in a park. He asked her for a gift. When she gave him a gift so that he couldn't only have a meal but also a place to sleep, he was very grateful. He smiled and said: God bless you. Minutes later this light appeared out of heaven.
