Interpretive Notes

Web Text

From time to time, you learn something new, and you can't see the world in the same way again. That’s how I feel about the Lapi Boli Project, which brings together artists from four countries for the innovative task of throwing pâte de verre (glass paste) on the pottery wheel. Such a simple idea and such incredible impact. -Susie J. Silbert Instagram: @krista_is WeChat: krista_is
