About the exhibition
The exhibition "CRAFTED BY" SOUVENIR x Atelier šperk a kov VŠVU (Studio Metal and Jewel of AFAD) offers visitors a unique insight into the world of creativity and skills of students who, through their works, connect tradition with modern design, thereby celebrating Slovak cultural heritage. This exhibition is not only a display of artistic creativity, but also an inspiring way to learn about the meaning and beauty of craftsmanship in the contemporary world.
This cooperative project presents the unique works of students from the Studio Metal and Jewel at the University of Fine Arts and Design Bratislava (AFAD), which were created under the leadership of Kristýna Španihelová and in cooperation with Nina A. Šošková's project – Contemporary Souvenir. The exhibition project presents souvenirs in the form of various artefacts, which were created by integrating traditional craftsmanship with modern design. Jewelry, diaries, lollipops, or light objects... these are all the results of the challenge that the students faced in collaboration. Diverse artefacts, materials, technology, packaging material and other practical aspects of sales, combined with traditional craft and traditional folk culture, have resulted in original concepts of contemporary souvenirs that are presented in this exhibition.
We thank the Tatra Banka Foundation for the support and the Bratislava City Gallery for the facilities provided.
