Through manual glassblowing, the material becomes gesture and trace, recording the time and action that generated it.
Each piece is unique by the nature of the process: there is no seriality, but a continuity of language. The function is present, but secondary to the physical presence of the work in space.
This work is part of contemporary research on glass as an artistic medium, freed from decorative tradition and oriented towards a sculptural interpretation.
