Process
These pieces are made using a complex Venetian technique known as Incalmo. Glass segments, usually of different colours, are simultaneously blown to the correct size and thickness before being joined together. Requiring expert control, each separate piece must fit perfectly to create a unified, organic form.
Jochen Holz is an award winning contemporary glass artist producing vibrant, organically shaped lampworked glassware and artworks. Jochen originally trained in lamp working in Germany before studying glass at Edinburgh College of Art and The RCA. After graduating in 2003, Jochen established his studio in East London. Jochen Holz’s approach to design is guided by the lampworking process and the flowing forms of hot glass. Each piece is a one off with a unique, spontaneous energy.
