About
I am an artist specializing in glass and jewelry design.
My work is inspired by philosophical questions—about the world, the self, the desire to belong, and the need for acceptance. These themes stem from my own daily life and struggles: navigating my path as an artist, a student, and a person living with anxiety and fear of failure.
I primarily work with a mixture of glass and metal, exploring the dialogue between the materials.
For my diploma project, I chose to create a journey of self-exploration, using my work not only as personal reflection but also as a conversation starter with others.
Imperfection, dissatisfaction, and our relationship with mistakes are fundamental experiences in the process of creative work. When a process or result deviates from the original idea, we often experience it as disappointment. The series Perfectly Imperfect presents the constructive role of imperfection from different perspectives. It appears, for example, in the accidental changes of form, in the aesthetic interpretation of deliberate incompleteness, and in the creative control through which it becomes both valuable and a tool of expression. Imperfection is not to be understood solely as something negative, but also as an opportunity. The aim of the series is to encourage the viewer to reconsider their relationship to mistakes, expectations, and unfulfilled intentions. Mistakes are not only a necessary part of the creative process, but can also be elements that carry their own value. In this way, imperfection is not an end, but the beginning of something new.
