Wilfried Markus•Creative Discoveries in the Light of Glass
June 16 @ 09:00 – June 27 @ 17:00
When the torch is roaring with gas and oxygen, the flame looks yellow. This theatrical effect is part of our playful dialogue with glass. We let the glass lead us and inspire us as we experiment with color and methods of glass forming. Led by our imagination we shall create the fragile treasures. Sparklingly transparent and amusing in form, theatrical, whimsical. And as fantastic as we choose. We create our works from glass rods in the torch flame in transparent clear or multi-colored glass, formed with ease and fun. We then further enhance the appearance of our works by painting them, using glass enamels fired into the glass surface. We shall find inspiration from each other, exchanging ideas and collaborating on common projects. We shall be working with rods and canes of borosilicate glass.
