Francisca Snel brings transparent pink and subtle green glass together with copper in this sculptural work from Crystal Clear. The copper cleaning sponge remains visible within the glass, while daylight passes through the sculpture and reveals changing reflections, colour and depth. Its soft palette gives the work a colourful presence without feeling visually heavy, making it particularly suited to a light, contemporary or minimal interior.

Francisca Snel combines blown glass and copper in this colourful sculpture from her Crystal Clear series. Layers of turquoise, deep green, amber and red surround the fine structure of a copper cleaning sponge, transforming an overlooked household object into contemporary art. Because the colours, transparency and embedded copper change from every angle, the sculpture has no fixed front and can be placed freely in a space.

From the series Spatial Shade

For this series, Lisette Schumacher uses the form of the brick as a fundamental building element. Referencing modernist architects such as Mies van der Rohe, Alvar Aalto and Le Corbusier, the brick is approached not as a static unit, but as a modular structure through which space can be constructed.
In Spatial Shade XV, this architectural logic is translated into solid hand-cast glass. Rather than traditional stone, Schumacher works with glass bricks in varying tones and densities, allowing the material itself to define the work. The sculpture is built around a central void, creating a contained space that shifts through light and perspective. The coloured glass functions as both structure and surface. Its translucent quality introduces depth that is not physically measurable, but optically experienced. Layers of amber, yellow and warm orange tones intensify towards the centre, while edges remain more diffuse, allowing light to enter and disperse through the form. Subtle traces of the casting process - air bubbles, flow lines and internal variations - remain visible, reinforcing the material presence of the work. These elements are not imperfections, but essential to how the sculpture holds light.Balancing between architectural clarity and optical complexity, Spatial Shade XV operates as a compact spatial construction, where mass, colour and transparency continuously interact.

From the series Spatial Shade

For this series, Lisette Schumacher approaches the brick as a modular unit to construct space. Referencing modernist architecture, the work builds on the logic of stacking, balancing and repetition to create a compact spatial composition.
In Spatial Shade XIII, this principle becomes more explicitly sculptural. Two volumes are positioned in relation to each other, forming a vertical structure that feels both stable and slightly asymmetrical. The composition reads almost as a distilled architectural form, reduced to its essential elements.

The work is executed in solid hand-cast glass, replacing the traditional stone brick with a material that allows light to pass through and define the structure from within. Layers of cool blue and turquoise tones interact with deeper, more saturated accents, creating a shifting visual depth that changes with the viewer’s position.
The surface carries traces of its making: subtle flow lines, variations in density and small inclusions that emphasise the physical process of casting. These details activate the interior of the work, giving the sculpture a sense of movement within an otherwise precise form.
Rather than describing space, the work constructs it, using colour, mass and transparency as its primary tools.

Solid hand-cast glass, paint, varnish

From the series Spatial Shade

In the Spatial Shade series, Lisette Schumacher creates glass sculptures from solid handcast coloured glass. Each work is carefully composed from individual glass elements, resulting in balanced forms that reveal subtle differences in colour and transparency.

Light plays an essential role in these sculptures. As light moves through the glass, reflections and colour variations appear within the material. The sculpture changes depending on the angle from which it is viewed, revealing different layers and tones.

The compact scale of the work allows for close viewing, where the depth of the glass and the transitions between colours become visible. The weight and clarity of the material give the sculpture a strong physical presence.

Schumacher’s sculptures highlight the qualities of glass as a material, where colour, light and form come together in a single object.

From the series Spatial Shade

For this series, Lisette Schumacher uses the form of the brick as a building block. Inspired by architects such as Mies van der Rohe, Alvar Aalto and Le Corbusier, she approaches the brick not as a conventional construction material, but as a modular element through which space, balance and rhythm can be composed.
In Spatial Shade V, this idea takes on a more open and vertical form. Three stacked volumes create a slender sculptural composition that feels both stable and precarious, almost like a distilled architectural study. The work balances mass and lightness, geometry and movement.

Rather than working with stone, Schumacher uses solid cast glass bricks in different proportions. This choice transforms the brick from a practical module into a luminous surface. In this work, vibrant blue and turquoise tones move through the glass in layered, fluid patterns, creating a strong sense of internal motion. The colour does not sit on the surface, but appears to unfold within the material itself.
As light enters the sculpture, the work reveals varying densities, lines and optical shifts. Subtle traces of the casting process remain visible, reinforcing the physical nature of the object. At the same time, the flowing colour fields soften the strict geometry of the stacked form.

Spatial Shade V brings together key elements of Schumacher’s practice: modern architecture, modular composition, illusionary depth and the spatial potential of glass. Compact in footprint yet visually expansive, the sculpture changes throughout the day and rewards slow looking.

Crown of the Sea, this sculpture by Jeske Haak tells the future story form the romantic perspective. In this story there is a creature with a form that is inspired by a combination of corals, fish and jellyfish. It will tell the story of gardening coral, this is a methode to create healthy eco-systems. This will benefit the organisms of the underwater world with a better quality of life and in the long run, a better future. ​ The "Crown of the Sea" is made up of three distinct elements, each with its own meaning. The bottom section represents eggs, symbolizing the creation and continuation of new life. The middle section is designed as camouflage, essential for the creature’s survival in the mysterious depths of the sea. At the top is the crown, the jewel of the sculpture, representing how the creature nourishes and gives back to the ocean ecosystem. ​ Crown of the sea is part of Faces of the Sea. Faces of the Sea is a work about the future of the underwater world. Where the different faces represent different storylines of the future scenarios. This can be a romantic story or a dark story. The story of these "faces" will be showed in different elements.

The Arising by Jeske Haak explores transformation as a force of both fragility and power. Cast in bronze, the sculpture embodies the moment of emergence, when something delicate breaks through its surface to take form.
Haak draws on natural cycles and mythological imagery to evoke renewal and endurance. The reflective surface gives the work an almost sacred stillness, while the sculpted forms suggest motion and life within the metal itself.

Through this piece, Haak continues her investigation into the origins of creation, how form arises from matter, and how the smallest elements of nature can carry monumental presence. The Arising stands as a quiet yet commanding meditation on rebirth and material permanence.

Freerk Wilbers has been developing a new body of work that explores movement, perception, and light, and Low Moon continues this investigation. The sculpture is part of his ongoing Moon Series, a collection of freestanding glass works that translate optical phenomena into tangible form.

Low Moon is built from two transparent discs printed with fine geometric grids. When viewed from different angles, the patterns overlap to create the moiré effect, a visual interference that produces the illusion of motion. The sculpture itself remains perfectly still, yet the image of the moon seems to shift and breathe as the viewer moves around it.

With Low Moon, Wilbers reveals how stillness and movement can coexist within a single object. The work embodies the precision and quiet wonder that define his practice, offering a refined, collectable artwork that merges material craftsmanship with optical poetry.

Freerk Wilbers has been quietly developing a new body of work, and it begins with Full Moon. This artwork marks an important step in his practice. The piece is more intimate and collectable in scale, while still preserving the sense of movement, illusion, and wonder that defines Wilbers’ artistic approach.
Full Moon was created from a studio investigation into the moiré effect, the visual phenomenon that occurs when two similar, but not identical, patterns overlap. This effect produces dynamic, ever-changing images in the space between the grids.
The moon itself isn’t physically present; it appears only in the eyes of the viewer. The printed patterns on either side of the glass remain completely still, yet as the observer moves, a shifting optical illusion comes to life. With Full Moon, Freerk Wilbers demonstrates how perception, movement, and material can intersect, creating a contemporary artwork that resonates both conceptually and visually.
