In this my art work, I wanted to show my understanding of such imperious beauty.
So here I used the most beautiful, I think, sculptural material - colored glass. This is done by blowing hot pink glass into a ceramic graphite mold using my author's technology. Then this finished glass sculpture is treated with chemical satin. Boa, which is on the shoulders of the sculpture, is made of pieces of broken glass, glued together with a translucent plastic. This is also done using my author's technology of glass mosaic without the presence of a sculptural basis.

Hello, my name is Rashid Bakirov, I'm a Tartar, born in 1959 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. I am married and have three children. I have technical training in aviation mechanics, and I worked in aviation, but one day in 1997 I was in a glass factory and immediately fell in love with hot glass. This amazing moment when a hot, soft and almost formless glass is placed and blown into the mold, and after one or two minutes it gets a clear, finished shape. This process impressed me so much that I left aviation, and since then I have been engaged in glass. After the collapse of the empire (USSR), I had to emigrate from Uzbekistan to Russia, and until 2010 I lived and worked as a technologist and designer of glass sculptures at the Glass Institute in the Russian capital of art glass Gus-Crystal. There I developed my own technology for creating ceramic graphite molds for glass sculpture. After the crisis of 2008 and the closing of glass factories, I traveled from city to city to catch up with the glass artcraft that was leaving the country. In 2010, I said goodbye to this at the last factory of art glass (it disappeared) in the city of Saratov, where I now live. Although it takes a lot of effort, but now I sometimes make a glass sculpture to order.
