Jelena Veszely is is an active sculptor at the age of 95. She studied at the Academy of Music and the Academy of Arts at the same time in Zagreb in the first part of the 1940's. She and her husband, the painter Pál Szilvássy moved to Budapest in the 1940s Budapest, then to Tihany.
One of her favourite themes for her statuettes is the family. Her statues can be characterised with harmony and intimacy, but are energetic and dynamic at the same time, full of movement and tension.
Her thread graphics from 1973 are still considered rarities. She did her 'TV Drawings' in the first half of the 1990s in front of the TV screen, most of the time about a public figure. She is now involved in 'nudes' and the so-called Masks - in which she superbly illustrate characteristic features of various personalities.
Her long career also involved public statues that are now in Budapest, Pécs, Komló, Miskolc and Eger.
