Etsuko Ichikawa - Deai (2005)

Artist’s statement:

“These works are glass pyrographs that are made by drawing with hot molten glass, leaving the immediate charred tracery of my movement with the heat. 

It is a way of capturing a fleeting moment and eternalizing it, and it gives the viewer the opportunity to see a gesture.”

Well, this is the coolest thing ever! “Whatcha doing today , Jill?”

“Worky working… painting comics with a paintbrush and paper. What are you doing?”

“Oh, I’m just using molten glass to capture the image of movement and a fleeting moment on a giant piece of paper with awesome charred fury, like a god…”
