About the art
Artist statement
“Drops” - glass objects made of clear & rose glass.
The collection consists of sculptural vases and soliters inspired by icemelting. When the water flowing around infiltrates the ice mass, it crates natural sculptures that continuously changeforms. The fervent molten glass substance flows down in similar way and naturally forms itself into a drop. The sculptures were created as a result of watching the natural movement of molten glass. No mould was used to form the glass only the weigh and motion of the glass mass on the blowpipe. The Drops form is referring to
a nature recess where the first flowers burst into leaf and bloom out of ice caverns in the shade on a riveside.
