Nataliya’s journey into the world of glass art began in Ukraine, where her keen observation of nature’s patterns inspired her unique artistic idiom. A chemist by training, she integrates scientific precision with artistic passion, giving her pieces an unparalleled authenticity. Each sculpted sprout showcases her dedication and skill, combining her love for art and her fascination with the natural world.

Nataliya Vladychko’s glass sprouts are not just pieces of art; they are poetic reminders of the intricate beauty that surrounds us.
My education as an artist was in the Ukraine, a classical art education with a great deal of emphasis on drawing and painting. Because of this, I always start with a precise drawing or watercolor with a great deal of attention for detail. That focus is the same when I’m making works in glass, the details fascinate me, delicate color changes and graceful movements, always with attention for the space around the objects. The way patterns, textures and movements repeat themselves, changing only slightly each time, and then, coming together to form larger structures, has always fascinated me.
