JEREMY MAXWELL WINTREBERT BLOWS GLASS, COLOR AND LIGHT. A MASTERY OF THE INTANGIBLE, OF THE UNSPEAKABLE BEAUTY OF MOLTEN MATTER. WINNER OF THE LILIANE BETTENCOURT PRIZE, L’INTELLIGENCE DE LA MAIN, THIS FRANCO-AMERICAN ARTIST GIVES BLOWN GLASS A REFINED AND CONTEMPORARY EXPRESSION.
THE ARTIST OFFERS US AN INTIMATE INTERPRETATION OF THE COSMOS, IN WHICH GLASS MATERIALIZES LIGHT AS THE ORIGIN OF THE UNIVERSE. HIS WORK IS INFLUENCED BY THE PAINTINGS OF OUATTARA WATTS AND THE COLORS OF IVORY COAST, THE COUNTRY OF HIS CHILDHOOD. BELLA FIGURA, CIVES AND EYES CHANDELIERS APPEAR AS CELESTIAL, FEMININE FIGURES IN THE SPIRIT OF JOAN MIRÓ’S CONSTELLATIONS. IN A SUBTLE INTERPLAY OF DAZZLING AND CHROMATIC BRILLIANCE, THE ARTIST INTERWEAVES THE MATERIAL AND SPIRITUAL WORLDS, THE ARTIFICIAL AND NATURAL LIGHT. A VIBRANT, SUSPENDED WORK.
EACH PIECE IS UNIQUE, HAND-BLOWN BY THE ARTIST.
