ABOUT THE ARTWORK

I have been picking the flowers for the herbarium since ever. But I have never had one. I do not know why. The flowers stayed between the pages in books, forgotten, unused. Collecting went hand in hand together with herborizing for homemade tea and collecting of four-leave-clovers. On one side the usage and the other utopia. I recognise some of the plants, the others are unknown to me. I attach flowers on the paper by sewing on the machine. I work with the accident because I embroider the picture from the other side, I do not see the result immediately. I combine two different threads. The flowers are imprisoned on the paper. The embroidery finishes them, supports them, absorbs them or suppresses them. I draw on some of them. It changes the dried faded plants into fantastic unreal flowers. Additional text is short information about the profit and effects of the specific herb.

I develop various forms of perceiving, analyzing and creating of the space (the place, where we live, gallery, museum, exterior, city or landscape) in my works. I create sizeable installations, preferably site-specific installations, assigned for the specific place with specific meaning. They link sculpture and architecture and support the perceiving and observing of the space, its three dimensions, possibilities of movement and its borders, its actual state, history, potential and the options for installations. Sculpture becomes part of the space, where it is installed, in some cases it fully fuses with the architecture. Connection to textile (material and product – clothes) is visible in objects of smaller size. Clothes represent humans. It is their cover, shape, but it can suggest their absence too. The cut of clothes, their size and architecture come out of the size of a human, they are addresses for humans. They both cover, protect and characterize us (as well as the era). Their exchange and transmission offer the possibilities of working with measure, personalization and space expression. The objects are inspired in the form and shape of an architecture (of a house, a landscape) and with textile (clothes, technique, material) they get closer to human. The results are exploring the space relations and support physical experience (exploring, haptic values).
