In 2014 I was making head sculptures — a skull, a dragon, a dog. Painting on a 3D surface was incredible so I made a small one at first. Molded it, cast it. It worked. Now we do it again. #artistprocess #contemporarycraft #sculpture #studiofeliciano #dogheadsculpture #SwanCoachHouseGallery

The devil is always in the details.

This is what making some of our #lowcarbon #plasticfree packaging looks like..

New work from Rachel Wood

Each piece carries traces of making — fingerprints, joins & marks shaped by the landscapes of Derbyshire and the Australian bush.

Biography
Hidden talent of Czech glass art

Born in 1986, Beroun, The Czech Republic

Jaroslav Prošek works in Česká Lípa in Northern Bohemia, in the heart of Czech glass industry.

He specialises in designing and creating unique glass sculptures, but he also works with other materials, such as wood, stainless steel, or marble.

Jaroslav Prošek is not a typical artist, who loves art from his childhood, is consistently educated and does practice work. Jaroslav Prošek‘s journey to the world of glass art took some time. He was always manually skilled.

After secondary school he worked at technical departments of big Czech factories. There he improved his manual skills and learned to fix any problem before the final product is done.

When he started to work at Crystal Caviar company, a small company producing luxury chandeliers and glass sculptures, his thinking about creating products has changed. He found out that products cannot be only well made, but also aesthetic, create by hand from the most luxurious material to the first-class art products. Then he started to make his first designs of glass sculptures.

At the beginning of his art career, he had an opportunity to learn basic skills in Vlastimil Beránek’s atelier. His influence to Jaroslav Prošek’s work is obvious. Some of his sculptures are simple shaped, sometimes inspired by the sea like Beránek’s sculptures.

Jaroslav Prošek uses several techniques to create his sculptures: melting in mold, grinding, engraving. Choice of glass technique depends on the sculpture’s shape which he wants to create. Inspirations for his sculptures come from nature, sea, yachting and also things used to normal consumption. When something inspires him, he makes a small wooden model of the shape and according to it he creates the final sculpture.

Although his art career does not last long, Jaroslav Prošek has already his own reputation in The Czech Republic and slowly creates his reputation on the international market.

"I am inspired by the world around me, searching out the patterns and rhythms of the natural and man-made environment." Katie Braida draws inspiration from the patterns + rhythms of the world around her — translating them into texture, colour & form.
