The series of three handcrafted glass sculptures results from deep research into chemicals and their reactions with hot glass. The softly glowing colours visible within the sculptures are not added via colour pigments but introduced to the work through chemical reactions: a technique developed by Kaja during her Master’s at the Royal College of Art, London.
