Jitka Skuhravá

Jitka Kamencová Skuhravá was born into a Nový Bor glassmaking family and trained in glass cutting and engraving before graduating from the Academy of Arts, Architecture and Design in Prague. With her husband Tomáš Kamenec she runs the studio Jitka Skuhrava Glass, making free-formed art glass objects and light sculptures found from the Dubai Metro to Prague's Florentinum. Her work follows nature: ice, eroded stone and molten glass shaped by gravity alone.
