underwater love

first from the underwater series,
combining glass art and photography


220 × 230 × 300 mm

kiln-cast and blown glass, underwater photography

2017


This must be underwater love
The way I feel it slipping all
​over me
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it

lyrics by Smoke City's track Underwater Love


As a freediver (breath-holding diver) Mäemets' recent year's works has been inseparable from the depths of water. Rather than placing her work in the confines of a white gallery space,
​she dives into deep and hides her
​treasures there. 

Love Underwater was awarded the first prize at the international Bild-Werk Frauenau competition for glass art student's work 2017.

Love Underwater was also published in the international glass magazine New Glass Review 39.
