Prokešová
Delphine Prokešová
Born in 1975 in Alençon, France
Resides and works in Prague, Czech Republic
Delphine Prokešová sees her work as a source of perpetual learning and exploration through a multitude of material, techniques and forms. Motivated by a sensitivity to the passing of time, she archives what is left behind and soon to vanish.
She is collecting most of the materials used in her work, including bones and dead animals. Working in a myriad of handcrafted techniques from embroidery to taxidermy, she is reflecting on fading beauty, coexistence and perception.
