The typical heart symbol probably got under the skin of many of us. But he does much more. He comes from an artistic family from Eastern Moravia. He mainly deals with design, both in its classic useful form and in freer unique pieces and series. He likes to investigate the processes of the passage of time, deals with the theory of entropy, observes and transfers various structures to glass. His glass stands out for its vibrant colors and by the way….he also likes to grow tomatoes.
