Ka boithatelo o sebetsa mosebetsi oa hae Budapest, Szeift worked completely outside of the fine art scene, although not to his choosing, as he found himself subsequently rejected from his art minded group, therefore existing in a somber state of segregation. On a more uplifting note, Szeift’s career commenced as an art teacher in a high school situated in Budapest, a journey he chose to embark on for a number of years. His works of art began to attain acknowledgment during the late 1960’s when he was in the mist of his 20’s. It was throughout the 60s-80s Hungarian culture period that Szeift’s mixed media arts functioned outside of what was consented and probable both artistically and politically.

The artist’s life took a vicious detour amid the 70s, where he depended heavily on alcohol, ka masoabi o ile a lahleheloa ke ntho e 'ngoe le e 'ngoe 'me a phela bophelo boo hangata bo neng bo mo bona a le literateng.
