Overview

The interior design or the wall design by Hajek from 1976 is very room-determining. it would not be wise to compete with shape and color.
With a poetic hand-drawn vertical line, I intend to put a kind of membrane around the church.
My intention is to leave the room as the architect Hanke imagined: to provide “with colorless cast glass”.

Goals

The interior design or the wall design by Hajek is very room-determining. it would not be wise to compete with shape and color. With a poetic hand-drawn vertical line, I intend to put a kind of membrane around the church.

The theme is the space boundary, the connection between the profane world outside and the inner space, place of reflection and the Eucharist.

Process

The glasses have been structured using the hot process. This means that the lines appear as a kind of embossing only through the ups and downs in the material. The lines are drawn by light and shadow. An answer to contemporary glass design from the result of my artistic research.
