The first half of “Echoes” (in The Frame Maker showroom through March 13) is California glass artist Lea de Wit, whose full portfolio and info can be seen online at www.luckystripe.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Lea has studied under Italian glassblowing masters Elio Quarisa and Davide Salvadore, and renowned glass sculpture artist, Karen Willenbrink-Johnsen, among others at Scuola del Vetro, Abate Zanetti, in Murano, Italy; the Corning Museum of Glass in Corning, New York; at Red Deer College in Canada; and at the Penland School of Crafts in North Carolina.<\/p>\n

Lea’s work for “Echoes” involves a series of vignettes responding to the work of photographer Maire Scharpegge<\/a>, and a feature wall of her own, featuring 14 handblown art glass bowls, that is another kind of response to Maire’s images.<\/p>\n

Playing with reflections, cast shadows and projected colors, we set this installation against a white panel to showcase the purity of Lea’s colors, much in the way Maire sets off her printing inks against her stainless steel panels (more on Maire’s photographs in the next post.).<\/p>\n
