Keeping my focus on looking at working with glass,i have been trawling the online database to try and find some quirky artists that also Incorporate glass into their work.
.............................................................................................................................
I came across the work of Helen Maurer, she doesn't work solely with glass, but is more into the projection side of things, placing inanimate objects onto a projects and creating art works on the wall from the projection.
Statement from an online artist journal about her work.
"Glass and light are materials often employed by the artist to create installations for exhibition and site-specific projects. The ideas and themes often evolve through experimenting with these combined mediums in different ways, for example by placing glass objects placed on top of Overhead projectors. Here she creates miniature three-dimensional glass models, which the light passes through to cast a life-size image of the same scene onto the wall. This has recently been developed through filming the optical effects created during their construction and projecting these along side.
She likes the process of making to 'reconstruction' and a search for something familiar as though the pieces might already exists and the work is to find them."
