ZORITCHAK Yan, glass sculpture, permanent artist of Galerie Capazza since 1994

" By a stroll in the Milky Way, leading us of an intergalactic space to the belt of asteroids, I shall like evoking by my sculptures the relation between space-time and man. To follow this Arianne’s thread, I shall use the glass, the first material of synthesis created by the man, and vector of the communication of the third millennium. This noble material, allows us to look of the infinitesimal until the almost limit of the infinity. My sculptures allow me to return on the earth of the portions of the space, facilitating to each of us the journey in the universe. By the bright game of the reflection and the refraction, in my spirit or in the vision of the man, we approach the fourth dimension"
Yan Zoritchak
