Heike Brachlow

Heike’s sculptures explore the interaction of colour, form and light in glass solids. Heike aims to make forms capable of transformation, ideally in several different ways. Her works can change depending on the viewing angle, when set into motion, and in different light conditions. Her current series of work is based on a concept called D-form: A three-dimensional form is created by joining the edges of two flat shapes with the same perimeter length. Outcomes are wildly different depending on the point at which the shapes are joined. The resulting abstract sculptures do not have a base, and can be displayed in different orientations.
