The speed, the rhythm and sweat is what makes hot glass so fascinating.
The human head has been the subject for me for a while and it seems to be an endless source of inspiration. The transparency of glass is relieving. You can put things inside of it and leave a window to look inside. No explanation is needed.
Through my work I wonder about this world and try to add some humour in it. What keeps me going is a chance to move the boundaries of possibility and make work that is challenging.
