Artist list
Peter Machata, Jana Machatova, Kristyna Spanihelova
With a thematic and formal approach, they bring broad perspectives on the possibilities of the discipline in relation to the image of a person.
Kristýna was motivated by the mysterious history of her close relative and the need to present her personality using still available fragments of real objects and authentic elements of the family environment. Jana, on the other hand, focused on the question through jewelry - what spectrum of characteristics and activities is or in the specified period was a woman perceived and evaluated positively by society. At last- each piece of Peter's jewelry has its own specific owner, it functions as a name tag with ireplaceble and very personal identification markers. - Xénia Lettrichová

Open: Mon-Sun: 2-6 p.m.
Opening event: 7th of September 2022, at 6p.m.
