More information

Bukowskis presents a collection by award-winning glass artists Sini Majuri and Marja Hepo-aho, displaying a rare cross-section of contemporary Finnish glass. The unique sculptures mirror the depth of the Scandinavian forests and the invisible layers of the human psyche. The selection includes carefully hand-picked pieces of timeless collectable design.

Works by these artists, who are boldly renewing the field of contemporary glass, can be found in prestigious collections, such as those of Berengo Studio and the Museo del Vetro in Murano. Majuri and Hepo-aho have also been featured in numerous international exhibitions, such as the 2021 Venice Glass Week Exhibition at the Bel Air Fine Art Gallery.

Hepo-aho innovatively combines glass with natural materials such as wood and stone, and her gilded sculptures on folklore and femininity have attracted widespread media attention. Majuri has been awarded the Golden A'Design Award in Italy, and she has designed for the M + Museum in Hong Kong and the DutZ Collection in the Netherlands. Her works have been published In Urban Glass, Elle and Designboom.
