Artist Makes Portraits on Glass with just a Hammer

  • Every now and then a visionary artist comes along; one who turns the whole art world on its head. Hailing from Switzerland, contemporary glass master artist, Simon Berger, creates 3-d portraits using a hammer to smash, lacerate and crack laminated safety glass. Inventor of this technique, the art form plays with light and transparency, which Simon calls Morphogenesis.
    He creates beautiful things from destruction, but light emerges from the destruction. He creates disorder in the realm of light and, in order to make the portraits really 'pop', he creates dimension through light and dark, thus creating depth and perception.
    This is Aurum Gallery's first solo exhibition and what and incredible artist they have chosen. I predict that this artist will be huge, certainly in terms of his influence to future 'glass shatterers'.
    For me, this work borders on genius - nobody has produced this type of work before,
    To find out how he does it, watch until the end...
    Aurum Gallery and location:
    Aurum Gallery is a 'contemporary, urban and street art' gallery conceived, curated and co-owned by Clifford Price (Goldie) MBE; a music producer, record label owner, artist, DJ, actor and original yogangster hailing from the UK.

    Stunning work in a well curated gallery… I could spend hours there.
    Is there a big contemporary art scene in Bangkok?

    • @JBWanders73
      @JBWanders73  2 года назад

      Yeah, me too Dave. The scene is growing at a decent pace - there are a few galleries popping up all over town. Just in this building, Warehouse 30, there were two other shows going on. You could easily spend 2 or 3 days lazily wandering round some galleries and, with coffee culture growing too, there is usually a decent coffee shop very near by.

    It truly is a breathtaking new concept that Simon has produced here. The precision and delicacy, that contrast the general concept of having to smash the glass, present here is insane! Would love to check it out as I’m sure, as brilliantly as you’ve captured it here, it would be a sight to behold.

    Wow stunning artwork . I dont know who my sons inspiration was initially when he started this type of glass art. I hope he can have his own exhibition one day.
    Would love to send you one of his artworks of a very famous South African actress if permitted.
