YANIA

Jana Valouchová (MgA.), known as Yania, is a native of Plzeň now based in Prague. She works in the fields of painting and design. She studied at the Art School of Textile Arts and Crafts, then subsequently attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, where she majored in painting under the guidance of Professor Michael Rittstein and Associate Professor Roman Franta.

Following her studies, she dedicated a full decade to fashion design. In recent years, she has increasingly turned back to painting, through which she is rediscovering a sense of lost freedom.
