Illuminated Hat by Aleksandra Ana Bukovic

June 27, 2011

I’m very happy to present you the LED based work by young student from Rijeka’s Art Academy – Aleksandra Ana Bukovic. Luckily, I’ve stumbled on Aleksandra’s work while browsing through the photographs of all events from the Science Festival, held during April in several cities throughout Croatia.

While attending the course on industrial design (jewellery design), Aleksandra participated in the jewellery exhibition and show which was held as a part of The Science Festival in Rijeka (the topic of the festival was light) under the mentorship of the professor Nenad Roban (I blogged about him, too :)) and professor Lara Badurina. She presented a hat-shaped light installation for the body.

The Power of Thread, part 3: Eta Sadar Breznik – gallery

May 20, 2011

Eta Sadar Breznik‘s space oriented woven sculptures present all possible views on thread from an architect. Monumental and almost like a skyscraper structured, but subtle tapestry, opens another visual perspective on fibers and textiles.

Eta Sadar Breznik also express herself in wearable objects, using strong weaving density for her objects combined with transformable functions of every particular garment. All photos by Anda Klancic, Blaz Zupancic (c)
