“As a sculptor, glass is my medium. I build complex forms situated in the realm of utopian and dystopian modernist architecture and machines. I discovered glass as the ideal medium to make my ideas tangible and since then, I have worked with this material conducting many experiments over the years. The forms evoke a state of ambiguity between both coming into being and falling away. The fragile and breakable character plays beautifully against glasses ability to last for thousands of years. Glass can be graceful, clean and transparent, but it can also show the darker sides of life with dangerously sharp edges and reused broken pieces. My ongoing experimentation with the medium means that I have no objection to cracks in my work, that is a necessary part of the process.”
