Participant in AIDA's Special Exhibit at SOFA Chicago 2009Michal’s jewelry is inspired by minimalist design. She believes that a line is a symbol of both language and space and echoes body movements, rhythm and forms. In her work, Michal seeks to capture such movements and transform them into wearable works of art.
