<<Morning
Early on, I turned my attention from architecture and stage design (I studied
at the studio of world wide famous stage designer Prof. Josef Svoboda) to
scene compositions. This work created enclosed spaces of glass, that
expressed the experiences of dreams and observed reality. This approach
let me develop free composition in space.
I started my career painting on glass with a realistic appraoch. But slowly
this evolved into a kind of collage made from my own photography,
drawing, and digital print etc. And finally,now, I print all this material on
glass and, later after its fired, I again repaint. I call this multi media/multi
layer way of working slumping, acid etched, scratch, painted and digitally
enamelled collage on glass.
Thanks to the architecture and stage-design study, it seems to me, that
space is very important. I try to render and to express chains of events in
both spatial and semantic relationships. I look for things which belong to
each other, to family, to history, as well as to the present, i.e. that which
belongs to humanspace and time.
