Odkiaľ si?
Dievča z Petržalky.
Kde si študovala?
Mám pocit, že asi všade.
Ale nie, dve/tri vysoké školy v Bratislave, VŠMU, STU aj VŠVU chvíľku a jednu v Berlíne – UDK + kopec workshopov rôzne po Európe.
Kto bol/a najlepší/ia učiteľ/ka?
Život.
Čo sú tvoji rodičia?
Chvalabohu sú ekonómovia a daňoví poradcovia.
Čo ťa nebaví?
Účtovníctvo.
Čo si naposledy robila a fakt ťa to bavilo?
Viazať námornícke uzly a čítať za húpania sa lode v Chorvátsku.
Čo počúvaš?
Väčšinou rôzne internetové rádiá a podcasty.
Obľúbený film, animák?
Jeden obľúbený nemám. Naposledy, keď som bola chorá, pozrela som za 2 dni celú prvú sériu Handmaid’s tale a bolo to napínavo šokujúce. Z posledných filmov by to boli Beuys (2017) alebo On Body and Soul (2017) od Ildikó Enyedi.
Koho uznávaš ako autoritu v svojom odbore a mimo neho?
Tak napríklad Olafura Eliassona, Faye Toogood či Suzanne Lee.
Akú vec si naposledy kúpila?
5 kníh na dovolenku a vzorky divných materiálov v Modulore.
Keby si vyhrala zaujímavú sumu, čo by si si kúpila?
Laboratórne vybavenie.
Kupuješ si odbornú literatúru?
Stále.
Chodíš voliť?
Samozrejme.
Kto robí najlepšie párty?
Môj frajer.
Hovoríš sama so sebou?
Len keď pracujem.
Obľúbená kupola?
mm..
Šaty na párty. Od koho?
Od mamy. Máme taký zvyk, že na každú špeciálnu príležitosť mi nejaké ušije.
Čo máš na ploche?
Bordel, na rozdiel od väčšiny dizajnérov, čo poznám.
Najlepšia výstava?
Love&Fear, London Design Museum.
Čo z domácej a zahraničnej scény rešpektuješ? A prečo?
Všetko, čo sa snaží posúvať hranice.
Morálka alebo peniaze?
Morálka, ale bez peňazí to nejde.
Výnimočná kniha?
Viacero, najnovšie pre mňa: Dougles Coupland – Shopping in Jail alebo Americký cisár od Martina Pollacka.
Optimistka, pesimistka, nihilistka?
Workoholička/optimistka.
Máš nejaké hobby?
Svoju prácu.
Individuálne alebo v kolektíve?
Vždy ma to bavilo viac v kolektíve.
Slovensko – zem zasľúbená?
Snáď o 10 rokov bude.

Where are you from?
I’m just a girl from Petržalka, the (in)famous housing estate in Bratislava.
Where did you study?
Where didn’t I?
But no, at two/three universities in Bratislava: VŠMU (Academy of Performing Arts), STU (Slovak University of Technology) and VŠVU (Academy of Fine Arts) for a while. Also at one in Berlin – UDK (Berlin University of Arts) + loads of workshops all across Europe.
Who was your best teacher?
Life.
Who are your parents?
Fortunately, they are economists and tax advisors.
What don’t you enjoy?
Accountancy.
What was the last thing you did and enjoyed?
I tied boating knots and read on a rocking boat in Croatia.
What do you listen to?
Mostly some internet radios and podcasts.
Your favourite film or cartoon?
I don’t have just one. Last time I was sick I watched the first season of Handmaid’s Tale in two days and it was thrillingly shocking. From the latest titles, maybe Beuys (2017) or On Body and Soul (2017) by Ildikó Enyedi.
Who do you respect as an authority in and out of your field?
For instance Olafur Eliasson, Faye Toogood, or Suzanne Lee

Laboratory equipment 🙂

All the time.
Do you vote?
Of course.
Who throws the best parties?
My boyfriend.
Do you talk to yourself?
Only when I’m working.
Your favourite dome?
Hmm…
A party dress. Made by…?
By my mum. We have a habit that she always sews me some for some special occasion.
What’s on your desktop?
A mess 🙂 As opposed to the most of designers I know.
The best exhibition?
Love & Fear, London Design Museum.
What do you respect both from the local and foreign design scene? And why?
Everything that tries to push the boundaries.
Ethics or money?
Ethics, but you know how it goes: no money, no game.
An extraordinary book?
I have more of them, but the last ones for me: Shopping in Jail by Dougles Coupland or Emperor of America by Martin Pollack.
Optimist, pessimist, nihilist?
I’m a workoholic/optimist.

My work.
Individually or in a collective?
I’ve always enjoyed it more in a collective.
Slovakia as the Promised Land?
Perhaps in 10 years’ time?
