Plika

The Plika Light is made from a bunch of coloured fibers mounted in white ceramic elements. The form evokes Rasta dreadlocks but the name suggests an inspiration derived from Plica Polonica (Polish Plait), an old Polish superstition. As with other Pani Jurek designs, the lighting fixture allows the user to interact with it. A Plika light can be easily braided, knotted and tangled to achieve varying effects.
According to the folk tales, a messy knot tangled up at the ceiling imprisons evil spirits.

Pani Jurek straddles the border between fine arts, craft and design. Applied art objects are created in an artisanal manner. 

The brand was established in 2010 by Magda Jurek, artist and designer. A painting graduate, she thinks of her objects as signs, sculptures or installations, treating them also as tools for building abstract compositions. Utility forms can also be a means of expression, like colors, stains, textures, shapes.
