DESIGNER BIOGRAPHY

A portrait of Czech artist and designer Dalibor Sipek son of Borek Sipek

Dalibor Sipek

Photographer and Designer Dalibor Sipek is born on 1986 in the city of Amsterdam. As the youngest brother of two, he was raised by the esteemed artists Bambi Uden and Borek Sipek. As he matured, Dalibor grew up to acquire a flare for photography, driving him to take up studies at Technicka Univerzita v Liberci with a major in Visual Communications, Film and Photography.

 

Dalibor’s career began as a photographer of glass artwork for the Sipek family business. As he developed deeper familiarity, he began to take part in designing and producing his own artwork. 

 

Over the years Dalibor has participated in numerous exhibitions around Europe, collaborating with artists across a broad spectrum of media, including but not limited to paintings, sculptures and glasswork. He is relied upon to design custom-made crystal objects for numerous exhibition, earning him a reputation for producing some of the most exclusive awards made of crystal glass, a privilege he hands out in Czech Republic every year. 

 

During the Covid outbreak, Dalibor designed and created a crystal gift that was gifted to 148 different  orphanages around the CZ as support and recognition for their efforts.

 

Currently, he resides in Czech Republic, continuing his exemplary work.
