Folded Coral Shape – Restrain and Release series

This orange glass sculpture is from Maria Koshenkova's Restrain and Release series, created while in Japan. The series drew inspiration from the Japanese bondage practice of Shibari, characterised through its amalgamation of control and submission. Maria modelled for a Shibari master and translated the experience into glass shapes. This glass sculpture represents Maria's own body in conversation with rope.
