About

I graduated in 2020 at Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design, all of my projects were inspired by the connection between the nature and human. I emphasize the eco-logical thinking and sustainability in my artworks. Beside textile and fashion design I like to experiment with other materials (concrete and wood) too. I move on the border ot the fine art and applied art.

My masterpiece is a kind of experimental design process based on cognition and experience. My goal is to find a balance between natural elements and human intervention in the creation of objects, using found wood raw materials that basically do not have the value and aesthetics associated with them. The workflow is also a conscious subordination to the predestined formal and structural contents found in natural elements, which can be interpreted as a personal respect for our natural environment. Biomorphic elements found in nature often form harmony with the proportions of the human body, providing an opportunity to experimentally rewrite an object of use (shoes) that comes into direct contact with humans in everyday life. With my footwear collection, I draw attention to a design attitude where the designer respects the shapes ready to be made from nature and adapts to them during design and construction.
