Custom work

Custom plasma art

We make art pieces and light installations that glow with real plasma: rings and spirals of bent glass, tubes up to 3 metres long, plasma built into furniture, display cases and stage sets. For museums, interiors, exhibitions and the stage.

We bend and blow the glass ourselves and develop the gas mixes in our own Moscow lab, so we take on shapes you won’t find among standard models. Here is what we have already made.

Torus

For the Atom museum in Moscow we made a plasma torus — a glowing ring modelled on a tokamak, the machine in which scientists hold red-hot plasma for nuclear fusion. The museum ordered two of these rings: one stands in the permanent exhibition, the other travels with the touring show. To bend the sections we had to design our own oxygen burners and kiln: you can’t buy such a rig.

Spiral

Spiral

Glass bent into a spiral by hand. Bright neon red that literally floods the room with light.

Tubes up to 3 metres

Tubes up to 3 metres

Floor-to-ceiling plasma tubes 2.4 metres tall for the Summer in Moscow exhibition. We make them up to 3 metres long.

Built into furniture

Built into furniture

Seven plasma tubes in different colours are built into the curved bar counter at the Atom museum. We build plasma into counters, display cases and furniture so it becomes part of the architecture.

Colour to order

Colour to order

For an exhibition about Moscow transport at the Manege we matched gas mixes to the colours of the metro lines. The mix sets the colour and character of the discharge, and we choose it for each project.

Stage

Stage

For the ballet Tesla at the Musa Jalil Tatar Opera and Ballet Theatre we built a plasma tube into the main set piece, a giant generator above the stage.

How we work

  1. Idea

    We talk through the brief, the venue and the lighting, and suggest a shape, size and plasma colour.

  2. Design

    We sketch the piece and price it. If the shape is unusual, we prepare tooling for it.

  3. Making

    We bend and blow the glass, pump out the air and fill the gas mix, then run the piece in on a test bench.

  4. Delivery and installation

    We ship across Russia and abroad. Complex projects we install and commission on site, in Moscow and other cities.

What you want to make, where it will stand and by when. Even a rough sketch is enough — we will discuss what is possible and estimate the budget.
