Evans Atelier at the Church of the Holy Trinity in Vratislavice nad Nisou as part of the largest glass festival in the Czech Republic!
We invite you to a unique aesthetic experience that blends historic architecture with contemporary glass art. The exhibition “Glass and Light” showcases the work of the renowned Evans Atelier studio, which straddles the line between precision craftsmanship and modern design.
In the unique setting of the church, the glass objects create an extraordinary, almost mystical atmosphere through the play of light. Come see for yourself how blown glass and original paintings can transform a sacred space.
Main Exhibition at the Church of the Holy Trinity, Vratislavice nad Nisou:
Glass and Light, Aug. 24–29, 10:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m.
You will see objects with striking depth and a three-dimensional effect, created using fusing technology (fused glass) and original paintings inspired by historical underpaintings. By layering colors and then fusing them in a kiln, unique works are created that combine a precise technological process with pure artistic expression.
