Glass in any form and colour bleholds the magic of light. A fascination
with the play of light made the choice of glass as a medium for expression
an obvious one, yet it is often complemented with other non-translucent
materials.
The
ides to complement glass with other materials also belies the philosophical
approach I often take to my work. It is a fine analogy to the complimentary
paradoxes that belie our life; light-dark, life-death, earth- sky,
male-female,....
Glass
complenments architectural forms beautifully.
I often work closely with architects and art-agencies on site-specific
projects, where they commission me to produce glass screens, window
panels, lighting objects, for a special location, often public buildings.
The concept for such pieces is often led by the site and the brief,
although I will always mantain my own approach to the site.
In
addition to I also produce bodies of work for sale through galleries
throughout Europe. Because these pieces are usually non site-specific,
its concept and message are often much more personal.
All
the work shown here can be commissioned, and I would be happy to
discuss any details further details.
