Phoenix is a unique glass piece by Micke Johansson, one of Sweden's foremost master glassblowers. The work is created with the techniques Ravenna and Graal. Micke Johansson is the only person in the world to master the double-ariel technique, which makes his work particularly sought after.
With its powerful form and shimmering color palette, the work is an expression of technical brilliance and artistic vision. The accompanying LED base enhances its visual presence, creating a vibrant play of light that changes with the viewer's angle.
The name Phoenix suggests a symbolism of rebirth, transformation and inner strength. Micke Johansson, who both designs and blows his work - an unusual combination in the Swedish tradition - uses advanced techniques such as Ravenna and Graal to create depth and movement in the glass. Working with multi-layered techniques, each layer of glass is a perfect balance between control and spontaneity.
