IRDS Studio, founded by Ingrid Račková and David Suchopárek, explores the expressive possibilities of glass through geometry, light, and spatial perception. Their distinct yet complementary artistic approaches bring together sculptural precision, optical complexity, and an interest in the relationship between material form and intangible experience.

Račková's glass paintings explore internal structures, optical depth, and the tension between controlled geometry and spontaneous expression. Incorporating air voids and layered compositions, her works respond to changes in light and the movement of the viewer, creating a space for reflection and introspection.

Suchopárek works with cut, cold-bonded, and molten optical glass, constructing geometric compositions that draw on elementary symbols and relationships found in nature and human experience. Through precise arrangements of form and volume, his sculptures explore the interaction of transparency, light, and spatial complexity.

Across their practices, glass becomes more than a physical medium. Light activates its structures, reveals shifting relationships between surfaces and forms, and introduces new layers of meaning that unfold through the viewer's perception.
