Monette is a Danish artist living and working in London. She holds a Glass Art degree from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and a Masters in Glass from The Royal College of Art.

Through her work, Monette explores the idea that what we perceive as beautiful in nature is linked to our conscious, or unconscious, recognition of nature’s underlying patterns and structures.



Her wall installations and sculptures are influenced by mathematics and molecular structures.  Drawing on these principles, from the world around us, her current sculptures reference coral, exploring their shape, movement and texture.


With a keen interest in where an idea and making processes meet, Monette explores glass making through a variety of kiln-formed glass techniques and has developed her own style of casting.



In her talk, Monette will share some insights into how she makes her work as well as how her work has developed over the years. She will talk about her ideas and overall philosophy of making and how she has navigated some of the ups and downs that comes with finding your way, developing work and working as an artist and educator.
