Coexistence I,II,III

Glass blowing is a time-based craft that induces forcesinto a material to shape it. The resulting shape needs tobe cooled down, annealed, a process that allows to takeout the naturally occurring tensions in a material when changing temperatures. The annealing process in the case of this work, being very heavy, took several days.Last but not least, the shapes seen in Coexistence are counter-intuitive to the practice of glass blowing. They are moments that are irreversible. They are penetration of volumes that are momentary and irreversible.All of these time based manipulations, some a shortas the split-second two glass blown vomues collide are contrasted by the extreme longevity of glass. Itis one of the longest-lasting man-made materials -decomposition is estimated to take 1 million years. On the other side, this craftsmanship of time and force is juxtaposed with the time-less composition of the digital and the schizophrenic notion of the 3D print being amaterial with a very short half-life and the atemporality of the digital itself.

Objects are made on a screen,sculting without force feedback, without temperatureand without time. They exist as immaterial constructs,formed to fit the glass object and to form a coesitencewith them.The fusion of these processes creates a form of coexistence, in which the reproducible 3D print meets the uniquely formed glass. They coexist, interwoventhrough glass reflections and refractions, seemingly merging the two material and making processes.
