VENDULA FABIÁN
Designer biography:
Vendula Fabián was born in the Czech Republic in 1995. Her passion for making brought her to study Shoe Design first at the Secondary School of Applied Arts in Uherske Hradiste and later on BcA studies at the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen. After a Freemover scholarship at Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem where she focused on projects in the jewelry department, she decided to continue her studies in contemporary jewelry and gemstone design in Germany at the Trier University of Applied Sciences. After her studies, she went as an AiR to Kiosko galería in Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia. Throughout the past years, she participated in different expositions around Europe.
Collection concept:
A piece is an embodiment of a thought, idea, emotion, or feeling. Therefore, we can understand the interaction of a person with an object like an interaction of two bodies, two subjects. A worn piece of jewelry is becoming an extension of the body and mind on a physical, aesthetic, and conceptual level. In my work, I seek moments of small performances in public space through synergy between the wearer and the piece.
