PATRIK ILLO & ALEKSANDRA STENCEL | CO-WORKS | 13. 10. 2022
Patrik Illo is a Slovak visual artist and glass designer. He has collaborated and is collaborating with major glassworks in Slovakia, the Czech Republic and Poland. Since 2008, he has been the external chief designer of the Slovak glassworks Rona. His artistic and design works are represented in major galleries and private collections in Europe and the USA, and the designs he has designed are part of thousands of households around the world. He has exhibited at 50 solo and more than 150 group exhibitions in Europe, Asia and the USA. In addition to exhibition activities, he is also dedicated to curating exhibitions of contemporary design and art and organizing international glass symposiums. He is the recipient of major awards for design and visual arts. Since 2010, he has been the head of the Glass studio at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava.
Aleksandra Stencel is a freelance product designer working mainly with hand-blown glass. She comes from Poland and lives and works in Slovakia. She studied product design in Krakow and at the Glass Studio at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava. On an artistic level, she searches for various traditional decorative elements of glassmaking technology in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, as well as the connection of traditional techniques with the digital world. Although she creates decorative objects, her approach to design is rather minimalist. She collaborated with the Rona glassworks on the production of decorations and hand-blown tableware, which were exhibited at the Ambiente fair in Frankfurt.
The exhibition presented a collection of the latest drawings that the authors created (and continue to create) as a long-term joint authorial project. By combining intuition and precise, predetermined rules of creation, authentic short-term records of time and space are created as a result of momentary moods and feelings, conscious but also intuitive creative processes.
