Commission a work like this
This original has been collected and will never be reproduced. Yasin can create a completely new work from your own photographs, with the same hand-fractured technique.
Lifetime artist care
If the work is damaged in normal use in the years after delivery, Yasin repairs it in person, wherever it hangs. Only travel and accommodation are paid by the collector; natural disasters such as fire or flood, and deliberate damage, are not covered.
Care & display
Laminated safety glass holds together even when cracked, so the work is safe to hang and handle. Hang it where a single directional light — a spot or a window — rakes across the surface; the fractures change as you move.
About the work
No softness, no distance — only the weight of a gaze that refuses to look away.
Intense Gaze is an original broken glass portrait handcrafted by Yasin Uca, created on 18 June 2024. This one-of-one broken glass artwork brings a fictional figure into permanent existence through intentional fracture on laminated safety glass.
Several hundred controlled hammer strikes transform cold glass into a surface uncomfortably alive with tension and presence. This unique glass artwork captures a gaze that refuses to look away — each crack amplifying the weight of a stare that no distance can soften.
Framed in a black 6063 aluminium frame. This handcrafted broken glass portrait has been collected and will never be recreated.
