Saara Korppi. 360 Degrees North

Saara Korppi’s Glass installation 360 Degrees North is about Finnish nature and designing glass that looks interesting from 360 degrees. The works are inspired by Finnish nature, such as rock formations and lakes, especially the element of water in all its forms. The main theme is springtime when the ice has partly melted and is making spherical formations in water. The plates are three dimensional, both sides looking equally intriguing.
