With her art, Piroska is committed to helping children and young people with life-limiting illnesses all over the world. Piroska Szönye has first-hand experience of hospitalisation and parental care for a sick child. As an ambassador for the Swiss Children’s Hospice Foundation, it is important to her to use her art to draw attention to this taboo subject and to support the foundation with donations.

“In my artistic installations, I invest in “the weakest” in our society – they are my focus and appreciation – even beyond death.”

Not looking away and suppressing but using art to “make a big impact”, creating compassion for the afflicted families and their children with life-shortening illnesses – that is what Piroska is passionate about. Additional information
