About Cassiopeia Skulptur

Cassiopeia er en glasskulptur laget av resirkulert og industrielt avfallsglass. Materialet ville ellers endt på et deponi, men i stedet blir det smeltet om og omformet til en ny skikkelse. Hvert enkelt element er munnblåst studioglass, formet for hånd. Ru og organiske overflater reflekterer skandinavisk estetikk og lys. Hver glasskuppel er svakt belyst, og de isaktige overflatene smelter sammen til en landskapslignende installasjon. Skulpturen måler 150 ganger 50 ganger 30 centimeter. Hensikten er en poetisk tolkning av kontrasten mellom resirkulert og verdifullt materiale.
