RE-DESIGN of GLASS

Long description

The Earth is our common home and place to live, destroying it, destroying ourselves, one of the many problems is overproduction, it is associated with a huge amount of waste. In her activities, the designer focused on reducing them, turning them into a new utility product through recycling. This is due to the author’s interest in the subject of consumerism, who would
like to convey that the products we produce, which then end up in the garbage, are our good – raw material, not garbage. That is why she decided to design objects from wine bottles, using the original idea to hot, after reheating, shape it into a new crystal using a wooden mold, which gives the possibility to refine the object and duplicate it 1: 1. For decoration, he uses the technique of decorating glass with hot gold sheets, melting them into the glass surface.

This is a deliberate action to equate a recycled product to a designer must have product. As part of the technological trials for the master’s diploma at the beginning of 2021 – Zero Waste – a set of packaging for shopping, I had the opportunity to implement prototypes of previously designed vase forms in the glassblowing studio at the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts. in Wrocław.
