Works – 2022
EPICYCLE – Work in progress by Maria Sparre-Petersen & Jacob Sebastian Bang
The installation EPICYCLE – Work in Progress was created by architect Jacob Sebastian Bang and glass artist Maria Sparre-Petersen both teachers and researchers at The Royal Danish Academy – Architecture, Design, Conservation.
Bang and Sparre-Petersen examined aesthetic possibilities of recycled glass donated for the project by Reiling Glasrecycling Danmark ApS, Næstved.
The efforts resulted in a series of spectacular circular glass objects of varying size that were exhibited at Grønbechsgaard an exhibition venue in the island of Bornholm. The concentrical circular forms – called Epicycles – reference the glass waste they were created from. They exhibit different scales of demolition of the molds they were cast in a feature that is impossible to control completely. Hence, each object has it’s own unique expression determined by heat and it’s influence on the viscosity of the glass cullet.
Recycled Glass and Robotic Deposition by Simona Hnídková and Maria Sparre-Petersen
Recycled Glass and Robotic Deposition waas a collaborative project between robot expert Simona Hnídková and Glass expert Maria Sparre-Petersen. The project built on the previous project SILICA developed in collaboration with Architects Mette Ramsgaard Thomsen and Martin Tmamke from the research center CITA at the Royal Danish Academy, Architecture, Design, Conservation. In the project Recycled Glass and Robotic Deposistion the initial recipe for 3D printing the waste soda-lime glass fines from the containerindustry was adjusted to secure less shrinkage in the drying and firing processes ensuring more consistent and durable results. Addidtionally, an exploration of combining the prints with cast and blown recycled soda-lime glass shards as well as blown soda-lime glass fines was conducted.
