Evil Flower Black Heart – Hearts B&W series
This hand blown glass sculpture drew inspiration from anatomical wax models observed in La Specola in Florence and real hearts from a butcher's shop in Copenhagen. Through this glass creation, Maria Koshenkova wanted to imbue the hearts with a sense of brokenness, fragility and durability, qualities that characterise glass as well as the heart, a vital organ and oft-reproduced symbol. She also plays with idioms: cold-hearted, broken-hearted, warm-hearted, heart of stone.
