Materials and making

Mouth-blown glass

Glass is made in minutes and cooled for hours. Molten at over a thousand degrees, it is gathered, blown and shaped while it moves, a material that records the breath and timing of the person making it. No two pieces cool exactly alike.

Material: Glass
Dimensions: 333 x 325 x 260 mm.
Edition: 14 + 3 Artist's Proofs (AP)

01
Gathering
Molten glass is gathered from the furnace onto a blowing iron at working temperature.
02
Blowing and shaping
The glassblower inflates and turns the gather, shaping it by hand and tool while it is still soft.
03
Forming
The piece is worked toward its final form; colour, wall and profile are set before the glass stiffens.
04
Annealing
Finished glass is cooled slowly over hours in a controlled oven so it settles free of internal stress.
