Brains Blå Karolina BV AC-98 from Kosta Boda is an expressive art object by Bertil Vallien, one of Sweden's most well-known glass artists. The Brains series is characterized by its sculptural heads in glass - small works of art where form, color and expression create a strong presence despite the compact format.

Blue Karolina has a deep blue expression that interacts with the transparency and optical properties of the glass. The face appears inside the glass and changes depending on the light, viewing angle and surroundings, giving the sculpture a vivid and almost meditative expression.

Bertil Vallien describes Brains as a kind of anti-stress object for the hand, the eye, the desk and the journey. The handy format means that the sculpture can be held in the hand while also functioning as a decorative art object on the desk, on the bookshelf or together with other glass art.

Brains is a clear example of Bertil Vallien's artistry, where the human head returns as a symbol and where the depth of the glass is used to create a sense of something hidden and mysterious beneath the surface.

Brains Blå Karolina – a small but characteristic work of art by Bertil Vallien where glass, color and human expression meet.
