Foam Crafted Fusion Vases

In this project, Natascha Madeiski seeks to draw attention to discarded materials from the building and packaging industries. By collecting off-cuts and remnants of various foam materials, she transforms what is typically seen as waste into quick, intuitive sculptural compositions.
These ephemeral assemblages serve as the basis for a unique process where glass is blown into plaster moulds cast from these foam sculptures. The fragile scraps, held together with tape, imprint their textures and contours onto the transparent, refined surface of the glass. Through this process, Natascha Madeiski aims to elevate these overlooked materials, preserving their transient forms in a durable, presentable medium. This work invites reflection on the lifecycle of materials and the beauty that can emerge from what is often discarded.
