Inspiration is fundamental for an artist who wants to convey emotions. Venice is a unique and special place able to inspire awe and wonder, with its polychrome stones in the floori ng of St Mark’s Basilica, the archangels on the altarpiece covered in gold, pearls and precious stones, the cupola’s coatings lit by the glare of the sun reflected on water. The memory of Turner’s Venice paintings comes back. This inspired me to create an elegant set, evoking a box full of precious gems, with a series of colours entirely handmade. I mixed pigments of the highest quality with mica in gold, silver or copper, a material used for centuries in Venetian furnaces to achieve luminescent effects in glass melting. I thought it was right to name this collection ‘The glasses of Venice’ to celebrate its beauty and uniqueness. Selection 8 Half Pans Show more
