Sun and Sea Warm Glass Art - Claire Folstad
Why Glass?
To take a cold, flat, unyielding medium and create the illusion of fluidity in it … ethereal like in its connection and presence … work that is felt as much as seen … glass can hold that energy and I love it!
Glass art can strike an emotional tone and of course looks/feels so different in every light and with every mood. I’m inspired using this medium as my voice and that passion carries though in my work. I hope my work also speaks to those who visit my home gallery & studio.
Whether a little piece for jewellery or a large custom sculpture, bowl, or wall art, each element is hand cut and fired in my studio. This is a labour of love, both frustrating and rewarding, but unique and ever changing.
The connection between nature & art is reflected in Claire’s fused glass work. From her unique wall art to her beautiful bowls, come experience her love for texture, water & colour • IG @altaclaire
