Karen Nyholm Glass Fantasy

Karen Nyholm is working with extraordinary technical perfection and at the same time she gives her fancy full scope. She is selecting her subjects associatively transferring them with admirable mastership. There is always something to discover at the second glance.

The decanters are made in blown glass. I have used bright transparent colours. Each decanter has a stopper in a complementing transparent colour. Where the glass overlaps, a third colour appears.
