My name is Jana Omelková and in my work I try to connect the past with the present and natural inspiration with the aesthetic power of materials. Under the influence of the color of my native Slovácko and the rich history of Great Moravia, whose references are often reflected in the shapes and symbols of my works, I founded the Bombós atelier seven years ago. Under this brand, I create author's vases, containers and small sculptures from Romanesque cement - a material that allows me to tell stories that are solid, but at the same time poetic. My path to art led through SUPŠ in Uherské Hradiště, where I immersed myself in painting, and then through the Faculty of Fine Arts in Brno, where I had the opportunity to study under the guidance of Jiří Načeradský and Michal Gabriel. Foreign internships were also essential for me – at the Brera Academia in Milan I was captivated by the elegance of Carrara marble, while in Romania I was inspired by the unbridled nature of the Balkans and the nature of the people there. I like to respond to challenges connected with a specific environment, whether it is set design projects or interior details. In my work, I connect the references of the past with the possibilities of the present and look for ways to give new meaning to materials. My work is a space where stories, symbols and nature meet - and where the strength of concrete can become a tender carrier of emotions.
