Businist

Hello, my name is Vitaly, I would translate “Businist” from Russian into English as “Beads-maker”.
I work in Saint-Petersburg, Russia, in a creative laboratory and a place for experiments, where glass, fire and metal turn into jewels – it’s my workshop!
I create my Universe without the hustle and bustle. When I place a galaxy in a ring or carry an ocean floor with all its inhabitants into a pendant, whole my energy and attention I spend for this fascinating process, so during most of the time I am in my workshop.
The interest in glass was since my childhood. What is vacation life without a collection of colored bits of glass, smoothed with sea waves! I could do with them!
I grew up, became a professional artist, now I have learned the variety of decorative techniques. I work with enamel on copper and silver, make painting, sagging, fusing and create stained-glass. The whole my experience is constantly used in my favorite lampwork!
