Karina Kalantajevska
In my practice, I am guided by the curiosity of the human body, not only as a shell but more like a mediator between thought and the outside world. I specialise in creating sculptures from textiles, metal and glass, with a focus on experimenting with innovative designs.
We learn and experience through the skin and its ability to react to the environment. Through my sculptures, I explore social themes like language discrimination and the tension between fragility and resilience with tactile engagement.
I am an art and design student at Gerrit Rietveld Academy. My exchange at RMIT University’s fashion department further enhanced my ability to explore materials in my works.
