Daniel Pošta is a multidisciplinary designer who combines craftsmanship with conceptual thinking. After studying architecture and design at UMPRUM in Prague, in Jiří Pelcl’s studio, he co-founded Zorya, a brand whose jewelry and objects at the intersection of tradition and experimentation have earned numerous awards. After closing the Zorya studio, he has focused on projects that intersect with architecture and public space; in his work, he develops the idea of the “jewel” at various scales and in different contexts. His work is characterized by an analytical approach, sensitivity to materials, and bridging craftsmanship with contemporary technologies. His objects have been exhibited in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, and are represented in both public and private collections.
Lukáš Dřevjaný alias oxoo is a Prague-based visual artist and lighting designer. He combines aspects of his work in live audiovisual performances, theatre and his own installations comprising of a wide range of media. For him, light is a means of manipulating the senses, bending physical reality and conveying intense audiovisual experiences, often giving audience opportunity to become part of the piece through interactivity. His work is often developed in a virtual environment and manifests into the physical world while keeping its digital character via the use of latest technologies such as digital LED strips, LED matrix panels, photogrammetry, motion tracking or lasers.
