Olga has been living in South Korea for more than ten years; this left a visible imprint on her creation in the choice of themes and forms of jewelry. Now she is based in France.

The artist is open about her being inspired mostly by nature, and this heavy influence is clearly seen in a series of brooches and necklaces. She intentionally leaves colouristic beyond her main focus and consistently sticks solely to black and white to let them endlessly dialogue like Yin and Yang.

Olga believes this emphatic minimalism niveleates possible distraction from the very pure form, which has the highest value for the author.
