SZKLO
SZKŁO ARE FUNCTIONAL GLASS SCULPTURES AND COLLECTIBLE DESIGN OBJECTS, HAND BLOWN BY ALEKSANDRA ZAWISTOWSKA WITH A TEAM OF ARTISANS. SZKŁO IS A CELEBRATION OF MATERIALS AND THE PROCESS OF GLASS BLOWING, WITH NO IDENTICAL PURPOSE.
SZKŁO IS A COMBINATION OF AN IMAGINARY APPROACH, MANY YEARS OF ARTISANAL EXPERIENCE AND AN ADMIRATION FOR THE RAW MATERIAL. SZKŁO ARISES FROM QUESTIONING THE TRADITIONAL GLASS BLOWING PROCESS, TRANSFORMING IT INTO A FUN EXPERIENCE. AS NO TRADITIONAL MOLDS ARE USED IN THE PROCESS, THE SCULPTURES TAKE ACCIDENTAL, SPONTANEOUS FORMS, OFTEN CHALLENGING THE NOTION OF BEAUTY. THE GLASS BLOWING PROCESS BECOMES AS IMPORTANT AS THE FINAL SHAPE ITSELF.
SZKŁO’S MISSION IS TO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES OF FUNCTIONALITY AND MATERIAL FEATURES, TRANSFORMING THE SIMPLE ACT OF EATING AND DRINKING INTO AN EXPERIENCE. IT CELEBRATES UNIQUENESS AND DIVERSITY. IT IS AN INVITATION TO LIMIT OUR POSSESSIONS AND TO APPRECIATE THE QUALITY OF INDIVIDUAL OBJECTS.
STUDIO SZKŁO WAS FOUNDED BY ALEKSANDRA AND HER BROTHER WOJCIECH ZAWISTOWSKI IN 2022.
