Designer Interview
23 March 2016
I'm a perfectionist by nature, thus, if the result doesn't seem satisfactory, I'll be changed it as much as needed so it makes me pleased. It started with the objectification of my worldview into things for myself. The first product created by me was a little clutch, sewed of leather, which I selected accurately. Then it didn't look like the image I had, that's why I deformed it with the help of water, temperature and mechanical impact until it was just the object I was carrying in my mind.
I felt that I need to express myself so I found the interest in design and art. I started to make research of artist who work in leather craftsmanship. I done the very useful internship with Nutsa Modebadze, she taught me general basic and the most important technologies of leather crafting. The next step of mine design career was Saint Martins college of Art. I have done the course of Creative process by Audry Ang (she worked with Yohji Yamomoto).
Kofta brand was launched in 2010 in Kiev, Ukraine. Till 2015 I have done 10 collections that were mostly shown in Paris.

It is a very small studio in Kiev, Ukraine. That was launched in 2010.
The main idea is a perfect implementation of unperferct sourses . And the most important thing for me and for my brand is a True. Art every time faced with True, it is not general but exclusively rule. The most beautirful art existed in the place where True finded apropriate form.
Doesn't matter, because I create the idea first. I love all process from developing a idea to implementation again and again. And the most exciting part of my work is to see somebody wearing KOFTA bag.
