猪野屋 牧子Makiko Inoya
From the start till now, I’ve been consistently using glass as a medium for my works because I deeply believe in the potential of glass.
Glass is such an impressionable material that enables me to form exactly what I image.
However, handling glass in the flame into a wished form needs a skillful touch in every moment.
Acquiring such craftsman skill excites me and this could be the reason why I am enthusiastic about glass.
When I was an art student, I was inspired by the insolite (“unusual” in French) aesthetics and started to work with glass.
Motifs of the insolite aesthetics may be grotesque and yet beautiful, and I think such ambiguity fascinates us.
About my glass works, I carefully choose my own insolite motifs from my daily life.
Wearing jewelries is an act to transform you into a unique art.
When you take and put my glass works on you, I hope they will be sublimed with your sensibility, then become a unique art.
