DESCRIPTION:
Marija Djokic, designer based in Serbia. In 2010, she graduated with an Applied Arts degree from the Department of Graphic Design at the Faculty of Philology and Arts in Kragujevac. Working in graphic design since 2012, she also began designing and making fashion accessories. In 2018, she became a permanent member at the Textiles and Contemporary Clothing Department of the Association of Applied Arts Artists and Designers of Serbia (ULUPUDS). In 2012, Djokic established Darmara to handcraft fashion accessories and clothing using only Italian leather in combination with semi-precious stones, crystals, metal elements and glass beads. The work is based on traditional techniques of cutting, drilling, gluing, drawing and sewing of leather elements. Such approach excludes the possibility of mass production which makes Darmara pieces unique or only produced in limited editions.
MATERIALS USED:
Leather (black and gold), metal elements ( silver and gold), stainless steel chains ( silver)
