Filip Vanas
“I like high contrast, vivid colours and strong
geometrical compositions. I use silver as
the basic material for my work but I like to
experiment with other, often non-precious
material like textiles and plastics.”Architect Filip Vanas moved to Dublin from his native
Czech Republic in 2005 taking up employment with an
Irish architect. In 2009 Filip’s role was made redundant
and he decided to take a jewellery course at NCAD under
jewellery designer Erika Marks.
“I spend a lot of time drafting and distilling the idea, thinking it through and making precise drawings before I touch any tools. I think about what can go wrong before I make it. In that regard my thinking is more industrial than craft in its process.”
