ABOUT ME |
||
The works of designer Valéria Fazekas cast a light on the permeability between the various fields of fine and applied arts, and the correlations between functionality and pure aesthetics, decorativeness and sculpture. Her most recent works – headwear objects – reflect perfectly her convictions as a designer: her hats are simultaneously apparel accessories and objects, pieces that possess an emphatic sculptural quality. By her own admission, her artistic work is imbued with an inclination for Constructivism directed toward elementary geometric spatial forms. Variability, movement and playfulness play just as important a role in her objects as the dynamic balance between symmetry and asymmetry. In accordance with her experimental temperament, she is interested in the association of diverse materials, colours and textures, as well as the dynamism of structures. Consequently, in some of her works, the structure built up of basic forms is paired with an intentional perspective of multiple views, while others comprise an interplay between the pure forms and colours with the surfaces. |
