Art In Glass
Olga Rozin
Artist statement
By definition, Surrealism: gives different meanings to every object. Personally I have found the medium itself surreal enough as it is.
With color or without, useful or not, sometimes it doesn't matter.
The curiosity of discovery, the curiosity of creation always keeps me motivated and driven towards this wonderful medium whose process I will always respect
