Edition: Unique
Run Horn VI is a glass piece that combines history, craftsmanship and innovation. With its height and advanced Ariel technology, Micke Johansson has created a horn reminiscent of Norse runes, but with a modern artistic soul. This is a technical masterpiece - and the expression of an artist who has mastered the entire process from idea to finished form.
Micke Johansson is one of the few glass artists who both shapes and blows his works himself. This gives him total control over color, shape and rhythm - where the transparency of the glass interacts with the nuances of a visual composition. The Ariel technique, where air pockets and patterns are created in several layers, creates a depth that is both technical and poetic. The name "Ariel" comes from Shakespeare's The Tempest - a symbol of the spirit of the air. Micke has refined this technique to double ariel, a method where several layers of glass and air interact to create a unique artistic expression that no one else in the world has mastered.
Edition: One of a kind - an original for the collector who seeks the unusual
Expression: A work of art that provokes conversation and dominates its place
