My name is Kanat Nurtazin, a self-taught artist from Kazakhstan.

About five years ago, I discovered the intriguing technique of creating art with shattered glass.

Last year, I decided to utilize this method to craft a piece dedicated to combating violence in Kazakhstan.

Based on official figures, gender-based violence affects about 400 women in Kazakhstan every year.

However, the real numbers are even worse.

This motivation led me to create the artwork titled Behind the Glass.

This wisdom guides me in both life and art.
