Yana Tankovska

Yana Tankovska emerges with her distinctive luminaries, assembled from pieces of crepe paper. But later, she discovered her passion for jewelry and became a master of accessories with impressive shapes and colors combined with rubber, ceramics and geometric interpretations. Yana is part of the team of 6 of FORMAT, whose space is a place for meetings, working and exhibitions. She finds inspiration all around her – food, architecture and interiors, but most of all in the communication and collaboration with other authors.

Yana Tankovska was born in Plovdiv, 1981. She graduated in Ceramics at the National Academy of Fine Arts.

DESIGN IS: inspiration, clean thought and form.
