Mural by SIMON BERGER at Wynwood Walls

Simon Berger (b. 1976) is a Swiss contemporary glass artist recognized for his innovative technique of sculpting portraits by carefully cracking glass with a hammer. His works, often described as morphogenesis, transform the fragility of shattered glass into hauntingly expressive portraits. By harnessing impact and transparency, Berger creates intricate compositions where light and shadow play a central role. His pioneering approach has redefined glass as a sculptural medium, exploring the intersection of material destruction and artistic creation.
