The collection was inspired by the sketches of Russian suprematists Konstantin Malevich and Nikolai Suetin. According to Malevich, the fundamental principle of Suprematism lay in 'weightlessness,' aimed at creating the effect of non-objective structures floating against the abyss of white space. In the artist's interpretation, the energy of the universe, whether male or female, carries no weight, yet it propels each of us forward towards the new. Our energies intersect along the way, becoming the primary creative force. Slabs of thick and intricately processed glass, used in every art object, represent streams of energy, transcending earthly matters.
