The Venice Glass Week 2025. An evocative reference to the wonder and enchantment that glass has inspired for centuries A material forged by fire, and transformed as if by alchemy into art: each creation is an act of magic, suspended between tradition and innovation.
The festival offers a unique chance to engage with the timeless tradition of glass, and to explore its ongoing evolution through contemporary creativity and future-facing innovation.

OH OMEN presents a landscape caught between past and future, where time appears momentarily suspended. Fractured cocoons evoke emergence and escape, holding transformations in a state of uncertainty. The sculptures embody metamorphosis, forming spaces that suggest both shelter and arrival.
