Hope Forstenzer: Inside/out

Craft Council of BC Gallery, Vancouver, BC

by Robin Laurence

Formerly based in New York City and now living and working in Vancouver,
Hope Forstenzer uses the medium of glass to explore the relationship between our physical bodies and our psychological selves. She combines blown and stained glass methods and techniques and adds two-dimensional
imagery through both sandblasting and photographs developed directly onto the glass. “We are all transparent. We are all opaque,” she writes. “We are all not sure of who we are.”
