Interview with Ekaterina Korzh at Saturday 18th of May 2019
FS: What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design?
EK: My first professional background was not of design. I spent around 8 years on studies and research in geography when I realized that I need to admit that I need to switch my career path and to do product and jewelry design. It didn't occur in an empty place, of course, because of all my life of learning and practicing different crafts and arts. At that moment, five years ago I started studying silversmithing in a small town of Tabio in Colombia during my research project. In two years, I was already admitted to the School of Art and Art History at the University of Iowa. There I took my first classes in product and furniture design. I established my own brand "korzhstudio" during these studies. Now I don't see my life without designing a new object every day.
FS: Thank you for providing us with this opportunity to interview you.
