Serge Costa’s practice unfolds at the intersection of material, memory, and post-industrial heritage. Working with glass and metal, he explores matter under conditions of tension, heat, and fracture, treating cracks and distortions not as flaws but as evidence of processes embedded within the form.

​

His background in graphic design informs a precise structural approach, translating grids, rhythm, and composition into three-dimensional space. He works within a former industrial workshop equipped with preserved furnaces, machinery, and vacuum-coating systems, reviving forgotten technologies as tools for contemporary artistic production.

​

Shaped by a childhood spent among abandoned garages and factory ruins in northern Russia, his aesthetic draws on brutalism, decay, and industrial poetics. Glass becomes a medium of memory and pressure; metal brings weight and directness. Destruction and remelting serve as core methodologies, creating a continuous cycle of transformation in which each new form carries traces of the previous one.

 

His works exist as temporary states rather than stable objects, offering a way to examine fragility, tension, and the emergence of new forms within matter itself.
