CAPITOL MAKER III

It would be most beautiful to take a peek into the authors' workshops! We would gladly accompany Ivan Baj to Murano, where his travel images of Sicilian land and sea flora are translated into hand-blown glass. Controlled chance plays a significant role in the high-energy works of Andreas Rier: crystal glass is blown into self-carved wooden molds. Wood is the fundamental material from which Christian Mittendorfer's clear and honest utility objects are born. Lara Catalani's jewelry is made from fair and ecological silver: 'Le ciondole' focus on the personalities of eight artists. Valentina Romen envisions bronze jewelry not only worn on the body but also used on the table. Laurenz Stockner is someone you would like to follow from the moment he discovers the cemented copper in the Prettau mine until the point where you can touch his embossed and forged bowls. Adriana Fortunato is engaged in weaving in general, and together with Caterina Fumagalli, they turn woven edges, a noble byproduct, into art. Also featured is the Ziplab cooperative with their upcycle project centered around the blue Schnipsel.
