Marta Pejoska is a Contemporary filigree artist, from Ohrid, N.Macedonia.
Her field of interest, for the last 10+ years is the water itself, with focal point the Ohrid Lake. Ohrid is her home, and Lake Ohrid the natural habitat in (and with) which she grew up. And not just the lake, but also Mount Galichica and Mount Jablanica, have built her poetic childhood picture of the place she lives. The more she learns and educate herself about the importance of this ecosystem, the more awakened is her feeling of concern and the question arises of whether she is contributing to the natural environment or doing the exact opposite with her everyday actions?! Her opinion is that every individual should work on their individual consciousness primarily for the environment in which they live and work (both urban and natural, as a whole) and what is happening to the environment, its development and protection, especially today when the human factor plays a key role.
"THE LAKE FISH" is the name of the collection she develops within the Lakescape project. The fish, their playfulness underwater, alone or in group, is the concept idea for this collection. It’s something she has been working on for quite some time now and we are impatient to see it “alive” in silver. The jewelry pieces will be mainly made out of silver wires and silver plates (sheets), with subtle filigree intervention and natural stones as detailing.
