Handbag
by glassblowing artist Tina Tylen.
Born and bred in Sweden, Tina
has had a mainly expatriate life since 1981, first in West
Africa and subsequently in England.
Her work for the past 10 years
has explored personal issues around sexuality, human
relationships and the humour and beauty that she sees in
these, as well as the natural environment, in particular
rocks, mountains and flowers. More recently she has
been exploring body language and the luggage we carry with us
in life.
These ideas have mainly been
expanded through the medium of glass, because of the
qualities of sensuality, depth and flow that glass
possesses for her. Since graduating in 1997 she has been working as a glassblower in
London.
