Jan Salanský is an independent creator whose approach steps beyond the frontiers of cultures, languages, disciplines, and styles. He creates designs that either observe or violate conventional crafting procedures, creating novel objects using traditional procedures. His work focuses on the detail and raw appearance of processed materials set in a context of place and time. He is a product of the Czech creative community in the Ještěd foothills. Jan is seconded by his brother Ondřej Salanský, his consultant, production and marketing team. They together form a dynamic duo of brothers introducing unique comprehensive solutions and procedures into design.
