A ‘quantum rose’ for the 21st century: Oksana Kondratyeva on her quantum computer inspired stained-glass art

Physics World has a feature article on the art of Oksana Kondratyeva inspired by the quantum computer. The regular contributor to SGT Heritage and History meetings said:

"In my own work, I’ve recently been experimenting with glass of different thickness to make a piece of art inspired by the packaging for a quantum chip made by Rigetti Computing. Entitled Per scientiam ad astra (through science to the stars), the artwork was displayed at the 2024 British Glass Biennale at the Ruskin Glass Centre in Stourbridge, UK"
