This work is made by using a Vitrograph in the hotshop, combining it with glassblowing. After the object was annealed, unwanted parts were coldworked away.

‘This work, like many others of mine, was born from some failure in the hotshop. Result of a process of looking for the most interesting aspects of mistakes.’

Balázs Telegdi is a Hungarian glass artist who draws inspiration from the material qualities of glass. His works are a conversation between the maker and the material as he looks for less known or unexpected responses from this molten mass. His works always start out as material experiments where he looks for nuanced details or grand phenomena that could be turned into the core of the new artwork.

Balazs showcased the making of this piece at our Turn up the Heat event, and he has generously donated it to this auction to support GLAS (Glass Legacy Association Stourbridge). 50% of this auction’s proceeds will be donated to GLAS, and 50% will be donated to the artists.
