Cactus group
This unique series of free blown glass sculptures was born from a desire to experiment with a rich variety of colours. Alma Jantunen considers cacti to present the perfect forms to play with colour combinations and colouring techniques. Two assistants helped create different coloured glass, which Alma then incorporated into the body of the sculpture before shaping it. While these cacti are based on drawings, their unique characters were created during the making process.
