Post card, a sketch by Yllka Haxhiu – 004

Yllka Haxhiu – Kosovo

Yulka believes that artists are simply inspired to walk and look for their own way Her inspiration is the lifestyle, which is dynamic and diverse.

She was most provoked and inspired by the details in the Rhodope costumes, as well as by their colors, to create the sketches with which she participated in our project.

“The adventure begins at the moment when I started researching the beauty of clothing, culture, tradition, and nature of Smolyan. Emphasizing that nature makes each person for himself, in the journey of this collection, the material with yellow and red colors is emphasized more, which symbolize the most prominent details in the national clothing that I came across in different museums of Bulgaria. The details of my collection are unique to the emotions I experienced during this project. The new techniques of colored wool, the richness of the variety of colors in clothing made me realize those sketches with the multicolored balls.”
