Multi Coloured Glass ‘Oculus Violet Ultra’ by Elizabeth Sinkova

Galactic inspired multi coloured glass ornament with its very own forged steel bespoke frame and stand.

The piede changes depending on where you are standing, so this artwork delivers from every angle.

Inspired by the pictures of nebulae sent back by the space telescops.

The artist asks us to stop and contemplate, and drift away into the stars of our own imagination.

A meditative artwork, designed and created by kiln forming, with additional attention given to the surface of the piece before being finally finished.

Elizabeth Sinkova Glass Artist Statement

Being an expressive artist, I intend to create contemporary artwork full of colour, motion, and life.

In the process of designing, I am not only influenced by the brief itself but also by the context of the architectural setting. I am often inspired by nature and its elements, which assist me in capturing my ideas and integrating them into architectural artwork.

Techniques that characterise my work are airbrushed transparent enamels combined with freehand painting glass fusing and etching. I also love using the effects of optical glass and reflective surfaces interacting with direct light. These allow me to explore the true properties of glass and thus reveal its inner beauty.

My ultimate aim is to convey my vision into a unique piece of art that is not only an uplifting compliment to its building and surroundings but also an aesthetic element, evoking positive feelings in the viewers.
