In creating a design I start with the circle of life. I like to make glass you can feel, glass that appeals to all of our senses, and tries to make use of refraction and light. I want to paint pictures and tell stories at the same time. What drives me, I suppose, is a sort of inner search in which curiosity, the mysterious and the mythological are all-important ingredients. Glass, the living solid, is my constant companion. About the artist, KJELL ENGMAN.A tirelessly productive visual artist with unbounded imagination and a passion for narrative, who finds free expression through both utility glass and art glass. Kjell Engman gets his inspiration from the most diverse sources, not least from the animal kingdom and the world of music and entertainment. He often works on large installations in which he also combines elements of sound and light. Kjell Engman is frequently commissioned for public works both in Sweden and abroad. #kostaboda #Scandinaviandesign #Sweden #artglass #Engman #postmodern #studio54 #cancan.
