Karin Urmersbach-Niersbach
I am a Glass Artist with more than 20 years experience. I create functional glass art such as lamps, windows and mirrors.
The glass I use for my work is highly unusual and comes from the US and Germany – such as Youghiogheny, Chicago Art Glass, and Uroborus to name a few. I feel challenged by flat glass, I like to play and tell stories, mainly about nature’s beauty. However - important to me is also giving my art a functional purpose.
My engraving of windows and door panels is a unique approach which I have developed and which sets my work apart from any other glass work. I like to create a photo-negative effect by leaving the image clear and engraving everything around it. |
