Rocky Baroque is a rebellious take with ancient roots. Monumental contours meet raw, jagged surfaces in this collection of vibrant candle holders. The item from Kosta Boda resides in the borderlands between sculpture and utility object, a recurring theme in artist Hanna Hansdotter's design. Humor and irony are other tools used to interpret and challenge authoritarian principles. The result is its own genre – Rocky Baroque.
“Glass has a process and a pace that attracts me. It is intense, demanding attention, and cooperation is essential. I am a trained glassblower in a place that is marked by a historic glass industry, and my role as a glassblower is central to my process.”
Kosta Boda has a rich history of craftsmanship, and design heritage for hundreds of years.
