 Yaar is well known for her interpretations of the Evil Eye. She manipulates molten glass in front of a torch to make each eye and uses her own filigrana cane for eye lashes (this process is called Flameworking or Lampworking). Each eyeball is a work of art. In this collage she took each eyeball and sewed it to a piece of leather and then had it professionally framed.

Yaar produces this beautiful Art Glass by first making each individual Filigrana Cane in front her torch. The canes are then placed in a pleasing pattern on a clear glass panel, and then put into a kiln to fuse the cane to the clear glass beneath. The entire glass art piece is then attached to a special hanging system. Once it is hung on the wall, it looks as if the glass in floating!
