Thread Turmaline
-
Description
Thread Turmaline, is a unique glass bowl / centrepiece by the German artist Sabine Lintzen. Created from a blown central form which is enclosed in a ring of hand-pulled glass canes, each created cane is by made by hand and produced in a myriad of colours. The top edge is then cut and polished in direct contrast to the softer, organic edge below.
Originally an artist working with ceramics and creating sculpture, Sabine Lintzen has transformed herself into a master of glass. Since 1991 Lintzen has worked predominantly with glass, developing historical making techniques, drawn from Italy, the Arabian world and Dutch culture. These techniques enabled her to translate old knowledge into new applications.
Every piece is handcrafted in the local studios of Limburg and Amsterdam. With a gifted team of glassblowers, Lintzen forms the fluid material into solid shapes and structured patterns. With every step she takes, a new path arises that catches her interest.
For Lintzen her works in relation to their surroundings live together as a symbiosis. With luminosity, an exploration of light and color come into existence.
In her own words:
‘It is always a captured expression of a positive result of my thoughts. Therefore my work never stops and shows a continuous movement.’ -
