Natalya Krystyna

Creating in Brooklyn, Natalya Krystyna is a first-generation American whose work is heavily inspired by her Polish and Ukrainian heritage. Spending much of her childhood creating pysanky, a traditional Ukrainian practice in which eggs are decorated with beeswax and colored with dye, Natalya now channels her creativity into working with molten glass. She is particularly interested in capturing the moment glass transforms from a liquid to a solid.
