The Design

About Cassiopeia Skulptura

Kasiopeja je staklena skulptura izrađena od recikliranog i industrijskog otpadnog stakla. Materijal koji bi inače završio na odlagalištu otpada umjesto toga se topi i preoblikuje u novi oblik. Svaki komad je ručno puhano studijsko staklo, oblikovano rukom. Grube i organske površine odražavaju skandinavsku estetiku i svjetlost. Svaka staklena kupola blago je osvijetljena, a površine nalik ledu stapaju se zajedno u instalaciju nalik krajoliku. Skulptura mjeri 150 sa 50 sa 30 centimetara. Namjera je poetska interpretacija kontrasta između recikliranog i vrijednog materijala.
