Parallel to the birth of her children, she created her own glass jewelry brand, Astronauta D-458 glass jewelry. The purpose of her objects was to connect the important duality of movement and play. Her interdisciplinary approach to design can be found in a series of objects: her lead crystal ornaments, which were designed with a computer. Her light installations, glass lamps with programmed light and color movement, kinetic glass sculptures and glass images that influence the space with illusory optical movement. Her artistic career is defined by both design and visual arts. Her design approach is characterized by experimentation, open thinking, an interdisciplinary approach, and the use of conscious symbols.
About the objects
Lake Balaton, The 1 of May
My art is the capture of a snapshot. It can be interpreted as a 3D photo. The moment when, after a long cold winter, we are full of excitement and put our new feet in Lake Balaton, in the summer. Full of possibilities, full of curiosity, we give the new a chance. A slice of our life, an exciting cookie, a reward. Will be good? Cold warm? Shall we wait? It doesn’t matter, since the summer has already started, it’s the end of May, the beaches are opening.
