Artist StatementMovement, unpredictability and natural phenomena are common elements of the many things that fascinate Jimmy Anderegg. He not only finds inspiration in the organic nature of spontaneity, but also bases his studio practice on creating a process and style of work that attempts to walk a fine line between total chaos and utter control…to use glass as a vehicle to harmonize with improvisation. Anderegg’s work merges the tradition of Venetian hot and cold glass working techniques with a contemporary design sensibility for the wild, exotic and unexpected. Each piece integrates a laborious layering of hot colored elements that undergo an equally laborious array of cold carving processes; finished compositions that reveal lively interior and exterior relationships between form, colored patterning and surface finish.
