In my glass works I primarily use geometric morphology, typically derived from a square surface or cube volume. I transform their interior space by segmentation, multiplication or division.
The colorless optical glass in my work represents a contrast to the colored glass. I also use contrasts between matt and polished glass, between internal and external space.
My works are dominated by playfulness and strongly colours.
