I started the series in the spring of 2022. The war in Ukraine had begun.
I made wartime vases from recycled material – empty sparkling wine bottles. I used cutting, grinding and fusing techniques. Each vase is unique, numbered and signed.
The first 10 vases were exhibited at the pop-up exhibition Not Only About Hedonism, which took place as part of the BAM – Bubbles, Art and Music Festival on the Independent Dance Stage. To date I have made 15 vases (I to XV) in this series. All the vases have found new owners and I have donated the entire amount from the sale of the vases to the NGO Aitan Kaitsta (Helping to Defend) for the benefit of Ukraine.
For the victory of Ukraine!
