We took on the challenge of participating in the Fir Tree Festival organised by Riga City Council in 2012, 2013, and 2016 to demonstrate the permanency of our layered glasswork. Our layered glass fir trees were exhibited by the Latvian National Opera and Ballet near the old town. All sculptures developed in our signature technique are durable in varying climate conditions. We have developed the technique after years of experimentation and countless laboratory tests. The main component is the highest quality, weather-resistant glue.
The fir trees are made of stacked 8mm sheet glass and are hollow in the middle. Such technical solutions enabled 'colouring' the fir trees for the Christmas celebration in all the colours of the rainbow. Several hidden RGM lights inside the base of the trees bestowed a colourful luminosity, turning the darkest time of the year a little more magical for the passerby.
Pullulare and Ascendit are great examples of how our monumental layered glass sculptures can infuse parks and gardens with a modern chic during the warm season.
