Jana Oravcová: Secret history...

Textile artist Danica Tyková has mainly devoted her great talents to creating goblins. However, she wanted a change in order to emerge into new space. She planned to utilize scrap metal material gathered over a period of years and to give it a new place and function so it would become part of another context. Her metal objects, chairs, are small. They are connected together with metal, sieves, shaped iron, bronze, and brass which have been partially cut, riveted and intertwined. Owing to the variety of pieces, the chairs have an ironic, funny, erotic, dangerous as well as historical character. They are characterized by then artistic skill, combining and experimentation. Craft is the basis for this author, but despite this fact they can still compete with expensive industrial technology.
