ABOUT US

Surthrivia Arts is a visual art practice rooted in resilience, memory, and meaning.

Meaning: The name Surthrivia is an etymological composition of survive, thrive, and trivia, derived from the Latin trivium—a crossroads where paths intersect. It reflects the idea that human lives are shaped at moments of collision and choice, where endurance, growth, and direction converge

Metaphor: Our works use impacted ballistic glass as both medium and metaphor. Each strike leaves a scar without breaking through, representing life’s moments of force—pressures, shocks, and circumstances that feel insurmountable, yet do not bring rupture. No two impacts are the same. Each piece holds a singular, irreversible history.

Memorial: Like Kintsugi in Japanese culture—where fractures are honored rather than concealed—Surthrivia Arts invites viewers to find beauty in what has withstood impact. These works stand as reminders that scars are records of survival, that resilience takes form, and that at every crossroads, what endures becomes part of the story.

Frequently Asked Questions ?

Is this real ballistic glass, or a visual simulation?

Yes. We use real ballistic glass. Some pieces are created from pre-impacted glass, while others are commissioned works in which the impact becomes part of the creation itself, introduced by our artist or, if desired, by the collector (customer) under guided and controlled conditions. The resulting marks are authentic, irreversible traces preserved in the material, making each work singular and unrepeatable.

Is the artwork safe to display in a home or gallery?

Absolutely. After impact, the glass is professionally stabilized, framed, and sealed for safe indoor display. The artwork is no longer functional as protective material—it is presented purely as art, designed to be safely displayed in homes, offices, or galleries.

Are all pieces unique, or part of an edition?

Each Surthrivia piece is unique.
Because no two impacts are ever identical, every work carries a singular physical history that cannot be replicated. Some works may belong to a small thematic series, but the impact itself—and its resulting pattern—is always one of one.

What am I actually buying, art, material, or concept?

You are acquiring all three. A Surthrivia piece is a finished, framed artwork created from impacted ballistic glass, accompanied by its conceptual narrative. It is both a physical object and a memorial of resilience—an artwork that records an encounter with force and what endured beyond it.
