Born in1975, Dudáš studied at the Rudolf Sikora open studio at the Fine Arts College in Bratislava, Slovakia between 1994 and 1998. He currently studies at the intermedia school of Milan Knížák at the Fine Arts Academy in Prague.

The issue of power and impotence appears in Dudáš’s work in a ratio that is determined by his ironic self-reflection.
