Figurines2025/ Borosilicate Glass
OngoingThrough methodologies surrounding digital storytelling, the focus lies on researching intimacy and sensuality on screen and within computer-generated figures, while using glass as a medium to transform these digital concepts into physical, expressive forms. Although glass is physically non-conductive, it conveys aspects of digital cultures, acting as a membrane between physical and digital spaces—like a fourth wall.

Subsurfaces


2025, Borosilicate Glass, Gases, Electrodes, Transformers
A collaboartion between Emilija Povilanskaitė and Clara Schweers.  On view during at Apiece Gallery, Vilnius (LT).

Contact for availability.At the heart of the installation is an embryo – suspended, encased, and pulsing with energy. Like the Earth’s core beneath layers of shifting crust, it is held within a system of protective enclosures. The piece evokes a metaphor of geological and biological nesting: a womb within the earth, a nucleus inside a shell, life suspended in warmth and tension. A central, three-layered glass structure houses the embryo, glowing with neon gas that evokes the heat of magma, the radiance of the sun, and the spark of new life. Two vertical tubes extend from this core – vein-like or spinal – delivering rhythmic pulses of energy. These glowing arteries animate the form, suggesting a continuous cycle of breath, growth, and emergence.

Idles always land

On view during „PEEPING THROUGH – the Mum, the person who seems to live in the carpet room, the Surgeon.“ at Asifose, Brussels (BE).

Contact for availability.The work is composed of two gas-filled glass tubes elongated and stretched towards a precise, symmetrical pattern. The hand-formed structures seem to both be of synthetic and natural origin, due to their web-like, netted appearances that expand from themselves. Although the pieces rest, there’s something about them that suggests they might leave, at any moment. Perhaps because of their suspension. They are alive but restrained. Idle so to say. Though still, the work carries an intimate yet technological experience, situating itself both as a sculptural medium and reference to the visual realm of screen-based hues. Pink lights that feel almost artificial despite being entirely natural occurring—electrons shifting, photons released.

Far far away


2024/ Glass / 57 x 34 cm
Contact for availability.The pieces bridge the organic and digital realms, exploring illusion, virtuality, and material transformation. Similar to a "fourth wall", a membrane between audiences and characters, the piece fuses movements and gestures of digital and physical bodies across both computer screens and tangible spaces. By waterjet cutting, fusing, polishing and silvering the glass, the intricate, web-like patterns combine structure and abstraction, juxtaposing new media techniques with glass. While the combination of hands-on craftsmanship with digital, yet organic form language creates tension, the piece offers a perspective on the intersection of traditional techniques and digital cultures.

Grass Render


2023/ Krypton, Argon, Glass, PLA , ScentsOn View during The Alligator and the Bird at Kelderman en van Noort. Delving into light, scent, and form “Grass Render” combines Emilija’s complex exploration of technology and olfactory installations with Clara’s practice revolving around the liquid aesthetics of glass and digital storytelling. Their work is inspired by natural weavings of grass that reflect on complex glass shapes. Together they explored the magical capacities of plants, natural elements and electricity - grass, moss, woods, and gases - enraptured within scents and plasma light. Through the collision of materiality and intangibility, “Grass Render” follows the power of sensory narratives and explores human-plant relationships.

Contact for inquiries. The "Digit V” series are symphonies of “digitii” and converge to form a surreal cage like vessel, woven from delicate molded fingers. These unique pieces and three-dimensional compositions play with greater complexity, while evoking a sense of order.
