Glass work designer, Prinita Thevarajah uses glass to allude to the childlike qualities inherent in all humans. These glass vessels, candle holders and keychains were created as reminders of the space in between. Using playful colors and asymmetric shapes across glass jewelry and interior objects, Thevarajah's style is both eclectic and ephemeral, celebrating the innocence and purity that often gets lost in this modern world. They intend to hold space and make room for transition, change, being made new again.
