About the art
As seen in
Artist statement
Collection of sculptural glass objects, vases and bowls.
Molten glass naturally flows down and forms itself into soft rounded shapes. It is in fact a red hot liquid similar to magma. As well as magma molten glass changes its color after cooling down. Glass shapes of the collection refer to the natural phenomenon when hot and liquid magma turns solid state.
The vessels of this collection are hand modeled, no forms are used in the process of creation. The method generates vessels, mostly vases and objects of soft organic shaping. The surface “liquid” structure has a distinctive relief that encourages physical contact.
This Magma Vase is made of dark red solid glass. Direct light makes the beauty of massive red glass stand out.
