Džamutka is a motive that we can follow in his artwork almost from the beginning. But this creature has been changing and improving and got almost mythical properties in the later years.
In the final stages of development Džamutka became somewhat a mythical creature. She discovers the fire like in this piece or she discovers the color like in the large mural executed for the Runaway festival in Belgrade in 2017. Džamutka is a creature made of a bird and a bee, for its author it represents all the best in this world – extreme dedication and ability to fly. And if pushed to the limits it can sting. The name was derived from the Roma dialect in which it has a meaning of curse word but it can also mean something frightful and unseen. Therefore Džamutka can be everything and nothing and exactly this contradiction can infuse all sorts of traits in her.
A stylistic property that Piros has been employing in his artworks in the recent years is the contrasting of 2D background and 3D character. Even though there is tendency to put a whole scene in three dimensions, it is very obvious that the only thing in 3D is Džamutka.
