Born in Budapest. She has been living and working in London since 1985. She is a graphic artist, animator and filmmaker. The fact that she was part of the Indigo Group and the Béla Balázs Studio had a defining impact on her artistic work and later on her teaching pedagogy. Her first success came with the film 'Gyurma' ('Modelling Clay') which used pliable material in animation in a groundbreaking way. In her work, the line-based experimental nature of her graphic designs and the basically structuralist way of showing movement in her films complete each other as an organic whole. Since the 1970s, she has taught animation courses based on improvisation for various age groups, first in Budapest and then in London as well. She studies at Metropolitan University in London at Digital Moving Image Departement (2003- ) and has also been working with computer animation. (source: http://www.ndr.hu/HA/) (2011)
