Limen

Heike Brachlow's glass sculptures are based on a concept called D-form, where a three-dimensional form is created by joining the edges of two flat shapes with the same perimeter length. Results are wildly different depending on the point at which the shapes are joined. The subtle shades of pink in this work make it seem almost alive, as it captures and diffuses light through its matt, hand finished surfaces. Limen was acquired by the Victoria and Albert Museum in 2020.
