Eleni Papkov is a sculptor and experimental glassblower based in Toronto. Her work centres around forming visual experience into a moment of discovery, approaching sculpture as a vessel for reflection. With a foundation in traditional glassblowing techniques, her work challenges the boundaries of the medium, incorporating mixed media and shortening the gap between glass and its relationship with disparate materials.

Papkov’s work explores concepts of self through rhythm, gesture, tension and space – elements that shape her process and influence how her work interacts with the environment it inhabits. She is driven by creating technically precise, emotionally resonant and spatially aware work to provide an uninterrupted experience. Whether through standalone pieces or integrated installations, her practice invites deeper engagement with material, form and space
