Do-It-Yourself
Velebová, Leona ; Havránek,, Vít (referee) ; Kvíčala, Petr (advisor)
In my work I deal with the phenomenon of Czech home made products in the period of normalization and it‘s change to contemporary “DIY”, which is shared on the internet. I confront these two periods in my paintings and complement both of them. But with a little bit of irony, I point out the difference of concepts, last do-it-yourself (normalization era) and contemporary DIY (post-socialist). I examine the historical development of homemade crafts and goods, and the influence caused by the political situation, trends, and the start of the internet and human oversaturation of information. At the same time I am fascinated by the availability of resources and in our possibility of becoming experts almost on everything, but also my interest in the present loss of individuality due to massive sharing on social networks and available materials and yet, the constant desire for originality, which is difficult to achieve.
