Why love glass art? We have selected 5 reasons why we fell for its beauty and memorising qualities…and I’m sure you will too….
1. Creativity & Design
Glass is one of the most creative materials to work with. Designers can shape and create it into anything from functional pieces to large sculptural objects, each with their own unique characteristic. Glass is a fantastic medium that can have various colours, textures, and finishes. It’s aesthetically appealing and has all kinds of incredible properties. Swedish glass is one of the most iconic, contemporary, and modern designs in glass art. The clarity of each piece is memorising yet sculptural at the same time. Swedish glass can take on many forms from functional stemware to unique sculptural artwork. The glass artists use various finishes to their pieces from contemporary cut glass, frosted and smooth diamond cut finish.
2. Refractive and reflective qualities
Many glass artists are fascinated by the refractive and reflective qualities of glass. The skills and processes involved in creating glass sculptures isn’t only physically demanding but also requires great technical skills too. Göran Wärff (1933-2022), was a world leading glass artist for Kosta Boda, whose work would celebrate the refractive and reflective qualities of glass. Goran was known as the master of illusion and The Mirage (below) is a perfect example of such work which optimises the essence of glass qualities.
