Beautiful and robust autonomous studio glass object by the renowned Dutch glass artist Mieke Groot (former head of the glass department at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy).
This work is free-blown from extremely thick-walled, heavy glass (1.2 kg) and features a layered appearance of deep red to purplish-red pigment powder with a delicate speckled and air-bubble structure. Experimenting with the 'skin' of the glass and the inclusion of pigments is highly characteristic of her international oeuvre.
On the underside, the object is fully hand-engraved, signed, and numbered: MIEKE GROOT No. 179.
Thanks to the combination of the compact format and the solid mass of glass, it has a monumental, powerful appearance. Work by Mieke Groot is part of museum collections worldwide, including the Victoria and Albert Museum (London), the Corning Museum of Glass (USA), and the National Glass Museum (Leerdam).
