With an unyielding passion for art, Mefio delves into the world of overlaid polychromatic metallic films on shatterproof glass. Mefio's creations, born from meticulous layering and film manipulation, reveal vibrant color interplay and depth, a dance of light and shadow. Grounded in Minimalist abstract art, Mefio crafts abstract artworks using geometric shapes, employing the goniochromatic effect for iridescence. Utilizing glass, metallic films, and resin, the art pieces are constructed with refined outlines, sharp angles, and geometry. My exploration of contrasting hues and textures explores the nexus of form, color, and composition, pushing artistic boundaries to reveal the limitless potential of geometric shapes. Zuzana's technique of metallic film overlay is derived from a combination of gilding, decals, foiling and carefully applied glazes-a special blending of techniques which make Mefio artworks so unique. She has a studio space at home in Kingston where she can relax, listen to music and regularly experiment with ideas and new materials. Graduating from the Arts University Bournemouth in 2008 with a BA in Modelmaking, she was interested in artwork from a young age and has gained experience with many materials such as metals, resins, ceramics and computer-generated artwork. These invaluable skills later contributed to the founding of a successful online business specializing in wedding favors and decorative glassware. Mefio studio was a natural progression and creative outlet for Zuzana's interest and passion for creating original artworks.
