In our gallery, you can find the unique, illuminated mosaic works of Erika Fekete from southern Slovakia, the birth of which we would like to present in the words of the artist:
" I came to the creation of mosaic pictures completely by accident during a trip abroad in 2016, where I came across an amazingly beautiful lamp inlaid with mosaics, which completely impressed me.
That's when I decided that I would also learn the art of mosaic creation and try to create something unique. Shortly after returning home, I met a lady who also worked with glass mosaics completely by chance, and she showed me the technique, for which I am grateful to this day.
After finishing my first mosaic work, I knew right away that this was my path and that's all I wanted to do. I enjoyed every second of creating my mosaic pictures. It was amazing to see the sunlight dancing on the glass and changing colors from every angle. It is no exaggeration to say that a new world opened up to me. I fell in love with mosaic art!
Most of my pictures are the products of my own imagination and dreams. I like challenges and creating unique masterpieces.
Many people around the world make mosaic pictures, but by applying them to glass and combining them with LED backlighting is very rare, so I decided to make my pictures even more unique with this innovation. The mosaic images illuminated in this way reveal a completely different effect than in natural daylight.
Actually, we can say that we get 2 unique pictures in 1 picture frame. This, in turn, makes my work so difficult that when creating the images, I have to pay close attention to the colors I choose for some mosaic pieces, so that they are consistent in the illuminated state of the image and in natural daylight. I do not use prefabricated mosaic pieces and forms. I cut all the mosaic pieces by hand from Tiffany glass sheets and in some of my pictures I also use Swarovski crystals. The motifs are mostly the product of my own imagination, but almost anything can be made to order.
The preparation of a glass mosaic picture takes from 2 to 8 weeks, depending on the size. It is impossible to make 2 identical pictures, so uniqueness is guaranteed for all my creations.
I hope that my pictures will please as many people as possible and that they will decorate many homes. "
