In this compelling exhibition, art and design converge at the highest level. The artist and designer Rony Plesl masterfully harnesses the optical qualities of glass, achieving a precise and harmonious balance between form, structure, and the material’s luminous transparency.
Rony Plesl: “It is glass as a material which enables me, by means of its transparency and its translucency, to make precisely these kinds of statements.”I gave my diploma thesis the title “The Soul of Shape”. Since that time I have been trying in my geometric and minimalist objects, with the assistance of light and fine colours, to give a firm shape to some part of the secret of life.
What interests me about glass, about its shape and its colour, is not so much its aesthetic beauty, but much more its ability to make insinuations, even statements, about the secrets and inadequacies of the intangible world.”
