Modern Glass Sculpture ‘Fish’ by Jaroslav Prošek

This modern glass sculpture is a truly superb contemporary piece from a true glass maestro.

Cast and sculpted to perfection, this glass is finely contoured to deliver a vast array of sublime reflective qualities.

The midnight blue gives way to smaller, lighter pockets of ocean blue, giving it an immensely rich colouration under all light conditions.

Modern Glass Sculpture – Artist

Artist Jaroslav Prošek from Beroun, in the Czech Republic. He works in Česká Lípa in Northern Bohemia; the heart of the Czech glass industry, and has been so for many hundreds of years.

His main work is in creating unique fine art glass sculptures, but he is also a mixed media sculptor and will also utilise the properties of wood, marble or stainless steel to create his sculptures.

Prošek’s journey into the world of glass was an epic one. It was only after secondary school that Jaroslav began his interest in design. His first foray was while working for Big Czech glass factory technical departments, where he helped fix product design issues and improved his hands-on experience with the glass medium.

He moved on to more artful settings where he learnt under the tutelage of Vlastimil Beránek and Jan Frydrych as an understudy at their atelier studios.

Prošek began working at a small luxury sculpture and chandelier company and began looking at work as something that not only was well-made but also pleasing to the eye.

In 2010 he began making his own works of art using optical glass and crystal glass that were both finely constructed and aesthetically pleasing.

His work has won him legions of admirers and he was voted Top 100 Artists of Europe by the Michael Angelo Foundation.

His work draws heavily on his love for the sea and he was selected to create the 2019 ‘Blue Ocean Award’ glass trophy, which rewards companies for implementing the Blue Ocean strategy.

Jaroslav Prošek glass artist uses a multitude of techniques, including cast glass moulds, grinding, polishing and engraving, to create his highly sought-after glass sculptures.
