OLENA LEVDER
Biography:
From 1999 I studied at the Lviv Academy of Arts. There I met a jeweler and I was interested in what jewelry design I could make. My first jewelry was made of silver and then combined with various materials. My creative vision is the world around us that affects people. It all depends on the environment in which the human brain accumulates information and generally exists. I try to synthesize it and in effect I produce a handmade product in the form of a jewelry.
