MARIA NINA VÁCLAVKOVÁ

As the world has witnessed a variety of lockdowns and restrictions for the past two years, Current Obsession wanted to check in with artists across disciplines, and discuss the effects these measures had on their practices.

Maria Nina is a young entrepreneur and footwear & accessories designer currently residing in Prague. Her sustainable concepts and minimalist haptic designs sparked the interest of the public already during her studies. OFFCUTS, Václavková’s graduation project, was exhibited and acknowledged internationally, and her Rectangle shoes are now part of the permanent collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. In the interview with Current Obsession, she discusses the importance of material knowledge and the obstacles that she had to overcome as a result of the pandemic measures.
