Pavel Trnka

Optical crystal - carved and polished


Presentation

Pavel Trnka was a graduate from the Superior School of Decorative Arts and the Academy of Decorative Arts in Prague.

He teaches at the Secondary School of Decorative Arts in glass carving.

"Work is unquestionably in three dimensions, besides it’s what is taught in our school. What remains then is creation : we invent the third dimensions according to our imagination, after that we tackle the refraction through research in optics so as to captivate light. This is quite simple !"
