1993, Cegléd, weaver, felt maker

As a little girl she was fascinated by the way of life and the lifestyle of horseriding nomadic peoples. She learned the craf of felt making and weaving at the Nádudvar Vocational School of Applied Folk Art. Her work is fundamentally inspired by the forms found in nature. She believes that it is important to learn about ancient motifs and techniques, and to make garments, objects and fabrics that are still relevant today. She draws her inspiration from the treasures of the ancient world of motifs and combines them with her own ideas, designs and dreams to create something new, alive and vibrant.
