Profile
Shout Out!
Hi! I am a graphic designer (or a visual communicator) from Bratislava, Slovakia but I am currently living in Novi Sad, Serbia. After several international fellowships and earning my MA degree in graphic design in Bratislava, I worked in advertising for some time. Recently I am trying to work as much as possible as a freelancer, a job that I love the most. I am interested in a design and collaboration of cultural, social and information networks, as well as be a part of the international professional designer network. I am one of the three founders of Open Design Studio (Bratislava), which tries to visually present and discuss topics that deal with black holes of visual communication, open criticism and research, striving to give better solutions for visual communication in different communities and societies.
