slavna devotes a great amount of energy to details, she lovingly refers to it as 'decor terror'. whether her designs are highly stylized or camp, factual or trash, her efforts are to galvanize the projection of the intimate space of the performer within the depth of the stage. she hybrids a strange mix of an untypical melange of antique silks, hand embroidery, discarded objects, plastics, and her grandmother's unending wardrobe...all gloriously crafted, painted and produced by hand. apart from her obsessions with materiality, color, and space, she is never at the loss of meaning of dress as an extension of character's performance of identity, gender and other social and sequential specificities resonating the tale told. recently, slavna also co collaborated on stage design with the director saar magal on her latest pieces 'obsessions' at the burg theater and 'love me more' at the schauspielkoeln.
