Furies Magazine: Where does your inspiration come from?

Kteis: Inspiration comes to me from variety of sources, mostly from everyday life, struggle and dreams, but also from myths and fairy tales. I love ancient cultures and their pantheons, especially goddesses and female characters – their power and mystique.

FM: When did you start making scarves?

Kteis: I started painting on silk almost 3 years ago. I finally found a way to combine two of my loves, fashion design and painting.

Kteis: Idea starts with some image, but it alters significantly when it comes to painting, because it is impossible to predict precisely how it will look like when it comes out. That is something magical in process of silk painting and that is why each piece is unique, no matter how hard I try to make them as similar as possible.
