After more than six years studying at the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague, and residencies in Jerusalem, Tallinn and Munich, Eva Pelechová settled down in Prague. She opened her own workshop four years ago, where she experiments with casting different ceramic materials including shamot, diturvit, terracotta and porcelain, as well as multiple firings at different temperatures and building moulds. The objects she makes are assembled from cut or somehow destroyed elements, where the surface and inner structure are an integrated part of her visual expression. Sometimes she reuses leftovers, such as old vessels or found moulds.
