Malin Pierre | Peace & Love | Glass Wall Sculpture | The Ode To

Editions: Handmade and unique 
Material: Hot blow moulded glass
Size: H22 W22 D8,5 cm
Exclusively created for The Ode To

Like an asteroid - this abstract glass wall sculpture is a wonder of billowing shapes. It shows a juxtaposition between the hard glass and the soft contours. As part of the Peace And Love collection, this glass sculpture gives us hope of a brighter future while showing the power of positivity. 

The shape is achieved through multi-step method that requires lots of time, patience and love. First Malin Pierre sews the original form in fabric, which she then uses to make a plaster form in multiple layers to mimic the fabric. The plaster form then dries for a week and is then heated and hot glass is blown into it. The form containing the glass then slowly cools off in a kiln for a couple of days to avoid the glass from breaking. Finally the plaster is carefully removed and the remaining plaster is rinsed off and the surface is brushed shiny. 

The result is a fashionable couture wall sculpture where the surface has traces of fabric. As you probably understand, no two are the same and you'll get something really unique. 

Details: This artwork is hollow on the inside and can be mounted on the wall with a nail or screw. Keep in mind that all handmade artworks can have little imperfections and traces of the artist's hands. Please note that the golden chain is only for decoration.
