Galla Theodosis is a French artist, working and living in Norway.
After graduating from an MA in Fine Arts at the Haute Ecole des Art du Rhin, and working primarily with photography and print, she focused on sculptural forms and installation works involving glass blowing and hot glass sculpting. Glass and its essential qualities – plasticity, transparency and ability to diffract light are at the heart of her work, as well as the material’ symbolic significance. The combination of glass and other materials and techniques enhances these characteristics. Using light, contrast and depth, her work invites the notion of space, while playing with different dimensions. Recurring themes include flora, Vanitas, the notions of memory, emotions and the bonds they create through time and space.
