Exhibitions are important for the creation of every artist. They are a challenge, a shift; through creation, a person steps 'out into the open,' where they are confronted with feedback from the audience, people, their impressions, and opinions. They are a unique celebration of art and of the person who has been creating something for a long time, and thus, without a doubt, an invaluable self-reflection and satisfaction.

Exhibition at the World Crafts Council, Belgique Francophone Gallery

In 2006, I was invited by the Slovak Craft Council to participate in a distinguished exhibition in Belgium, which introduced Slovak craftsmanship to a broader audience. It was an honor to exhibit my work in such a prominent venue, the Belgique Francophone Gallery, which is part of the World Crafts Council (WCC) based in Mons.
During this exhibition, I proudly showcased two vases, one bowl, and a ribbed sculptural piece that I previously presented at the National College of Art and Design (NCAD) in Dublin. The space of the WCC building in Mons—renowned for its stunning architecture—provided an exceptional backdrop for the display of contemporary applied arts and highlighted the rich traditions and innovations within the craft sector.
The World Crafts Council brings together over 200 Belgian designers and plays a vital role in promoting contemporary applied arts, fostering a vibrant exchange of ideas and techniques. This exhibition was a significant opportunity to connect with fellow artists and contribute to the dialogue surrounding craft and design on an international platform.
