NORA KOMOROCZKI – MANO

Hungarian Painter | Oil on Canvas

I paint what catches my eye, what moves me, and what I feel compelled to preserve on canvas.

I do not follow a single theme or a predetermined subject.

I paint what I see and what touches me — a landscape, a face, a moment, a particular light, a memory, or a subject that suddenly captures my attention.

For me, painting begins with seeing.

Working primarily in oil on canvas, I seek to preserve not only the image itself, but also the atmosphere and emotion of the moment that inspired me.

My paintings are different stories, born from different moments — connected by the way I look at the world.

ABOUT MANO

Nora Komoroczki, known professionally as MANO, is a Hungarian painter whose connection with drawing and visual expression began in childhood. She was constantly drawing as a child, and even during her school years, drawing became a natural way for her to observe, concentrate and connect with the world around her.

Her professional path initially led her into journalism. She later became Editor-in-Chief of the inflight magazine of Hungary's national airline, and subsequently served as Regional Director for Scandinavia and the Baltic States at the Hungarian Tourism Agency.

Years of travelling and living abroad, including experiences in Scandinavia, Israel and Belgium, broadened her visual and cultural perspective and became an important part of the background from which her painting developed.

Painting gradually became an increasingly central part of her life, allowing her to return to something that had been with her from the beginning.

Her paintings have been exhibited in Hungary and internationally and are held in private collections in several countries.
