Luca Markó (b. 1992) is a Budapest-based visual artist working primarily with analogue photography. Her images are rooted in her immediate surroundings, focusing on small, often overlooked details of everyday life.
How can something so natural and beautiful cause such physical discomfort? Something that is so widely loved? In her series “But I’m Allergic to Flowers”, she transforms flowers through physical processes—tearing, soaking, freezing—to create abstract, close-up landscapes. Her photographs reflect on the tension between beauty and irritation, capturing something invisible yet deeply felt: the presence of pollen.
