Liquid Light Glass

Meet our featured artist of the month: Steffen Plistermann!

Steffen Plistermann’s blown and fused glass compositions are enriched by his more than 25 years as a painter and sculptor. Through extensive experimentation, he developed a specialized technique of using powdered colored glasses for his compositions. By carefully layering colors and controlling the heating and cooling process, he achieves unique and distinctive surface finishes. Unexpected mishaps occasionally occur during the blowing and sculpting process. Rather than discarding these fragments, Plistermann recognizes their potential and transforms them into beautiful fused and slumped works of art.

Meet our Artist of the Month: Manju Chattopadhyay

Manju was born in Cooch Behar, India. From a young age, she practiced Madhubani, a traditional folk art historically created by women on mud walls using natural dyes, fingers, twigs, and nib pens. She moved from Hawaii to Santa Fe in 2017.
Manju’s mosaics begin with color sketches on paper, after which she transfers the outlines onto a board. Some pieces are fused in a kiln using glass stringers, canes, beads, small tiles, or remnants from glassblowing. She then selects individual pieces of glass and carefully glues them into place. The final step is to grout and frame the work. The themes and colors in her art are often inspired by the culture of her homeland.

This month only, use code MANJU10 at checkout for 10% off all Manju’s mosaics.

Pictured: Tangerine Forest by Tom Stempel

This beautiful piece by Tom Stempel showcases an intricate pattern of fused square cane along the center. Cane are colored glass rods that are cut down into small pieces. These pieces are later assembled into a pattern and fused together before being rolled onto the glass and blown out to form the vessel.
