Through her abstract solid glass sculptures, Heike Brachlow focuses on the exploration of transparent colour. Allusion is made using opaline glass with a soapy, translucent appearance. Opaline colours look like clear glass when they are put into the kiln, then develop during the firing process through exact control of the temperature profile. The longer it is fired at a specific temperature, the more opaque it becomes.
