In the wake of these first itinerant glassworks, designer Nicolas Verschaeve’s itinerant studio continues to reflect on the contingencies that link materials to places, landscapes and the people who shape them.
During a stopover in the Northern Vosges, he stopped off in Meisenthal to question traditional glassmaking techniques in the workshops of the Centre International d’Art Verrier.
Through the creation of a modular wooden mold, a veritable tool for conversation with artisans, he blurs the boundaries between design and production, giving rise to an astonishing repertoire of shapes and uses.
