Part of our International Year of Quantum Science and Technology coverage


The aim of the International Year of Quantum Science & Technology (IYQ) in 2025 to help raise the public’s awareness of the importance and impact of quantum science and applications on all aspects of life.

Ukraine-born artist Oksana Kondratyeva has certainly taken that message to heart. A London-based designer and producer of architectural glass art, she has recently created an intriguing piece of stained glass inspired by the casing for a quantum computer.

In this video specially made by Kondratyeva for Physics World, you can see her artwork, which was displayed at the 2024 British Glass Biennale, and glimpse the artist in the protective gear she wears while working with the chemicals to make her piece.

To discover more on this topic, take a look at the recent Physics World article: A ‘quantum rose’ for the 21st century: Oksana Kondratyeva on her stained-glass art inspired by a quantum computer

In the feature, Kondratyeva describes how her work fuses science and art – and reveals how the collaboration with Rigetti came about. As it happens, it was an article in Physics World during another international year – devoted to glass – that inspired the project.
